6 I, VII | narrow gorge between huge icebergs, over which the storm raged

8 I, VII | To the icebergs! to the icebergs !” cried Jaspar Hobson.~
9 I, VII | tore off the tops of the icebergs. Loud reports, repeated
10 I, VII | that a general overthrow of icebergs appeared imminent. A fearful

15 I, XII | would break the shock of the icebergs; and the cape itself might

34 II, X | generally seen in intense cold. Icebergs and hummocks were few and
35 II, XII | the size of every object. Icebergs of moderate height assumed
