He secured a piece of old netting, and he used to sleep on that until it became rotten by reason of thesalt water which drained from his clothes. On mad winter nights, whenthe sea came hurling along, and crashed thunderously on the decks, thesmack tugged and lunged at her trawl. All round her the dark waterboiled and roared, and the blast shrieked through the cordage withhollow tremors. That One who rideth on the wings of the wind lashed thedark sea into aimless fury, and the men on deck clung ...where they couldas the smothering waves broke and seethed in wild eddies over thereeling vessel. At midnight the sleepers below heard the cry, "Haul, O!haul, haul, haul!" and they staggered to their feet in the reeking denof a cabin.
"Does it rain?" "No, it snows. " That was the fragment of dialogue which passed pretty often. Then theskipper inquired, "Do you want any cinder ashes?" The ashes were spreadon the treacherous deck; the bars were fixed in the capstan, and thecrew tramped on their chill round.
