  him from England a fabulous assortment of “Landlubberlymusicians”
  with which to entertain the natives along the way,and beguile them in
 to giving up theirriches. Unfortunately, the musicians also beguiled t
 he captain into failing to reef the sails when aviolent storm blew up,
  and it was reported from the companion ships that “like the swan th
 at singethbefore her death, they continued in sounding the trumpets wi
 th drums and fifes. Also winding thecornetts and hautboys, and in the
