20/30 I say no man shall strike or offer violence to any of these but the supreme officer to the inferior, in time of service, upon pain of death. No private man shall strike another, upon pain of receiving such punishment as a martial court[7] shall think him worthy of. If any man steal any victuals, either by breaking into the hold or otherwise, he shall receive the punishment as of a thief or murderer of his fellows. No man shall keep any feasting or drinking between meals, nor drink any healths upon your ship's provisions. Every captain by his purser, stewards, or other officers shall take a weekly account how his victuals waste. |
