Lesson 33 Out of the darkness
Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.


The girl could not talk about her experience until one week later. She sailed out to sea one afternoon but was caught by a storm. She had to abandon the damaged boat and jumped into the water. She tried her best to swim to the shore during the whole night. The girl saw the highlight on the cliffs and struggled to the shore. That is all she could remember.
