Ships Strangely Built.

The bows Of the Viking ships were
built in the form of monster dra son
heads. which curved up and over the
bow to a great height. These were
gilded and painted so that in the sun

bodies of the ships themselves were
Of wood and very small compared TO
our ships. but they did carry large
square sails that were always made
Of blue or red or green cloth.
These great seamen were also our
first pirates. The old Vikings idea
of the sea was that to the mi ightiest
belong the spoils. When they en-
countered another ship, which was
not often, they endeavored to capture
the ship for themselves. If they
