What famously Bible story did the masters son compare their dangerous voyage to, Amen what were the reasons. Given

I see no evidence of the boy mentioning a story from the Bible in Chapter Three of the text. The boy mentions sighting a ship.....

In this dilemma, as I was very pensive, I stepped into the cabin and sat down, Xury having the helm; when, on a sudden, the boy cried out, "Master, master, a ship with a sail!" and the foolish boy was frighted out of his wits, thinking it must needs be some of his master's ships sent to pursue us, but I knew we were far enough out of their reach.

and he was later thrown overboard...

In this distress we had, besides the terror of the storm, one of our men die of the calenture, and one man and the boy washed overboard.
