tempest-tossed

The Republic had proved an utter failure, and France was but a tempest-tossed ocean of anarchy.

All along our coast the Government has built massive and strong light-houses to guide and warn the tempest-tossed mariner.

But they are not daunted—every one of the men has stood on the main truck of a tempest-tossed ship.

Tempest-tossed mariners would invoke her intercession, when she would appear to them and the storm would subside.

After that, they drifted into talk of the future, rather than driving stormily into the teeth of it, like tempest-tossed leaves.
