draught to lee as she takes to windward.
Else she becomes unstable fore and aft, and

A top burton is rove in the same manner as a luff-tackle purchase;
the only difference is, that the upper block of the burton is a
fiddle block, while that of the luff is a double one.

No, a pun is a play on words. An anvil is a large piece of iron that you put
things on when you want to hit them :-)

It is best to work apun the anvil, if you try holding things beneath it's
quite awkard to get a good swing going.
