| [00:31.95] |
The crew froze as he wiped the blood off on his coat |
| [00:35.92] |
And threw the helmsman ruthlessly overboard. |
| [00:40.62] |
In defiance of the storm, that kept them anchored for so long, he swore an oath to forfeit right and wring. |
| [00:52.30] |
Irreverent he cussed loudly: "I will round the cape, |
| [00:57.05] |
even if I have to sail until doomsday!" |
| [01:02.87] |
Their petrified facial expressions could tell: their master was like a devil on this floating piece of hell. |
| [01:45.60] |
There and then he gave the signal of departure. |
| [01:50.11] |
"Make sail and weigh the hook!" |
| [01:52.15] |
And so they left the harbor. |
| [01:55.13] |
Hear the Easter bells tolling through the roaring sound of a rough sea, accompanied by the sight of a ship sailing towards her destiny. |
| [02:05.23] |
What a spectacle of Blasphemy. |
| [02:19.37] |
There was no rejoice after his mad choice. |
| [02:28.58] |
Sails were lost, decks were flooded and lightning turned their ship into a coal-black carcass. |
| [02:37.95] |
Anxiety replaced vainglory. |
| [03:39.14] |
The storm died down but a sinister shroud of darkness remained, for the daylight came no more. |
| [03:56.18] |
Floating in unending dusk, adrift on liquid ground. |
| [04:03.56] |
Months went by and land was never found. |
| [04:09.07] |
Food supplies putrefied and pestilence broke out. |
| [04:13.04] |
Suicide became routine, some chose suspension, others jumped and drowned. |
| [04:18.96] |
The dead were sown in hammocks and disposed of in the sea, buried in a watery grave, after a short ceremony. |
| [04:47.72] |
The crew froze as he left his cabin with knife and gun, slaughtering what was left of them one by one. |
| [04:56.67] |
There was an evil murderous glimpse in his eyes. |
| [04:59.06] |
By the time he was done, the ship was desecrated by death and demise. |
| [05:07.64] |
Van der Decken lashes himself to the wheel, swearing at Christ: "I shall not yield!" |
| [05:12.55] |
All at once a new storm rose and lightning struck. |
| [05:17.50] |
The top mast broke off, impaling him, a shard of the crest piercing his chest, in a standing position nailed to the deck. |
| [05:24.59] |
And so a man dies, and a ghost resurrects. |
