On the night of the 27th, the Captain in- formed us that we were past Cape Otway, and had entered Bass's Straits. It blew hard all night, and next mommg, at ten a.m., a sailor on the look-out sang out : " Land upon the star- board bow !" Though I saw it very plainly, yet the Captain and mate doubted it for some time, as not agreeing with their reckoning. By-and- by, the mist over it cleared oflF, and it proved to be King's Island, which is opposite Cape Otway, and at the mouth of Bass's Straits
..., so that the Captain had been twelve hours out in his calcu- lation, no great matter, perhaps, in the distance between this and Trinidad, where we last saw land, two months and six days ago, and yet quite enough to be exceedingly perilous. All this day, and till the following morning, we had very hazy weather, the vessel scudding under a mere patch of canvas, and shipping heavy seas, the dead-lights in the stem being knocked in, the cuddy and cabins full of water, the passengers Digitized by Google 56 EXCURSIONS AND ADVENTURES in dismay, and everything in " most admired disorder." Truly, we passed the night " In cradle of the rude imperious surge •• And in the visitation of the winds." In the morning of July 29th, we passed the barren-looking islands at the eastern extremity of Bass's Straits, glad to get safely away from them, for such a passage was considered very dangerous in the gale and dark night that we had.
