1 Nephi 18:21

And it came to pass that after they had loosed me, behold, I took the compass, and it did work whither I desired it. And it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord; and after that I had prayed, the winds did cease, and the storm did cease, and there was a great calm.

After they untied me, I took the compass. It worked the way I wanted it to. I prayed to the Lord. After I prayed, the winds stopped. The storm stopped. There was a great calm.

Once they freed me, I grabbed the compass and it worked perfectly again. I prayed to the Lord, and immediately the winds stopped, the storm ended, and everything became perfectly calm.
