When a Ship, that is brought to be trimmed a-ground doth fall-over on a side, we call it over-throwne, and not over∣set; the reason whereof is, her want of floore to beare her upon, and sometimes it may happen by the indiscretion of those who bring the ship a-ground, heeling to the off-ward, if the ground be too steepie, whenas they should heele her to the shore-ward, to prevent which, we have no way but to shoare her up with her top-mast and yard.
