they tell us of the story of the Pilgrims who spent many days below deck

above deck was just for the crew

who slept in better bunks

or even better for the ship's Captain who guided the way across the Atlantic

and dined with his crew

while food was prepared below

the diet described

which consisted often of dried beans

with the hold shared by the Pilgrims and the supplies

and the storage of line for

the rigging.

to last the whole voyage to the New Land
