In our passage from thence to the East Indies, we were driven by a violent storm, to the northwest of Van Diemen's Land....
On the fifth of November, which was the beginning of summer in those parts, the weather being very hazy, the seamen spled a rock within half a
cable's length of the ship; but the wind was so strong, that we were driven directly upon it, and Immediately split. Six of the crew, of whom I was one,
having let down the boat Into the sea, made a shift to get clear of the ship and the rock We rowed, by my computation, about three leagues, till we
were able to work no longer, being already spent with labor, while we were in the ship. We, therefore, trusted ourselves to the mercy of the waves;
and, in about half an hour, the boat was overset by a sudden flurry from the north. What became of my companions in the boat, as well as those who
escaped on the rock, or were left in the vessel, I cannot tell, but conclude they were all lost.
For my own part, I swam as fortune directed me, and was pushed forward by wind and tide. I often let my legs drop, and could feel no bottom; but,
when I was almost gone, and able to struggle no longer, I found myself within my depth; and, by this time, the storm was much abated.

Read the passage from chapter 8 of The Prince.

Agathocles, the Sicilian, became King of Syracuse not only from a private but from a low and abject position. This man, the son of a potter, through all the changes in his fortunes always led an infamous life. Nevertheless, he accompanied his infamies with so much ability of mind and body that, having devoted himself to the military profession, he rose through its ranks to be Praetor of Syracuse. Being established in that position, and having deliberately resolved to make himself prince and to seize by violence, without obligation to others, that which had been conceded to him by assent, he came to an understanding for this purpose with Amilcar, the Carthaginian, who, with his army, was fighting in Sicily. One morning he assembled the people and the senate of Syracuse, as if he had to discuss with them things relating to the Republic, and at a given signal the soldiers killed all the senators and the richest of the people; these dead, he seized and held the princedom of that city without any civil commotion. . . .

"Perhaps he meant the stones of the earth,” said Pyrrha. "Let us go on down the mountain, and as we go, let us pick up the stones in our path and throw them over our shoulders behind us.”
