I regret it has to be on your ship,
but you will understand the necessity.

If you draw that sword, Captain,
we shall not have the pleasure...

back to Spain alive.

:29:21
Your prisoners, Captain.

Capt. Thorpe, do you confess to the truth

:30:20
Your records do us an injustice.

They should read nine cities
and 54 vessels.

You will amend the charges in accordance
with the defendant's statement...

:30:30
and place his confession on record.
:30:33
Capt. Thorpe it is adjudged...

under whose direction you will be chained
to the oars of a galley...

:30:42
in servitude
for the rest of your natural lives.
