Moby Dick
Herman Melville
October 13. “There she blows,” was sung out from the
masthead.
“Where away?” demanded the captain.
“Three points off the lee bow, sir.”
“Raise up your wheel. Steady!”
“Steady, sir.”
“Masthead ahoy! Do you see that whale now?”
“Ay ay, sir! A shoal of Sperm Whales! There she blows!
There she breaches!”
“Sing out! sing out every time!”
“Ay Ay, sir! There she blows! there—there—thar she
blows—bowes—bo-o-os!”
“How far off?”
“Two miles and a half.”
“Thunder and lightning! so near! Call all hands!”
