Nothing left! said Otto. I think that Robinson Crusoe himself would have given way to despair if his wreck had been anything like this. I wonder that even this much of it has been left above water after fire had got hold of it.
Perhaps the hull sank after the first crash on the rocks, and put out the fire, suggested Dominick, and then subsequent gales may have driven her higher up. Even now her stern lies pretty deep, and everything in her hold has been washed away.
