Answer:

The answer to your question would be that the underlined word that functions as a preposition is <em>of.</em>

Explanation:

The only preposition in the sentence above is <em>of.</em> <em>Machines</em> is a noun, <em>have</em> is functioning as an auxiliary verb. Have + <em>come and gone</em>, behaving as the main verbs  form the present perfect tense. Then, <em>but</em> is a conjunction, <em>the </em>is the definite determiner, <em>spirit</em> is a noun as well as <em>invention</em>. Finally, <em>lives</em> is a verb and <em>forever</em> an adverb.

It would be "The carpenter was suffering particularly, but he showed grit and spirit. Vincent had for the past week ceased to be an active member of the crew, and I could not easily account for his collapse. Physically he was one of the strongest men in the boat. He was a young man, he had served on North Sea trawlers, and he should have been able to bear hardships better than McCarthy, who, not so strong, was always happy."
