English ships getting under way
A rapid sketch showing to the left a near starboard bow view of a ship under fore course, mizzen and fore and main topsails with the wind on the starboard quarter. Further away and astern of her, a ship in the wind. In the right middle-distance, a starboard broadside view of a ship before the wind with her main and mizzen topsails loosed but shaking, her fore topsail loosed on the cap and her mizzen set.
