OLBGrk;

The ship was caught; being forced from Crete, and no longer at the command of the mariners, but in the sole power of the winds. And could not bear up into the wind; the ship could not keep her course, the winds being contrary, so that her prow or head (part whereof was called the eye of the ship, and on which its name was formerly, as now at the stern, inscribed) could not bear up according as their course did require; whence that expression, antofyalmein tw anemw, which is here used. Sic quo non voluit, sed quo rapit impetus undae.
