"Five nice little pirates, who would sink my Narcissus without so much as a be-damned to you! Mike, bring the irons. Terence, my boy, restrain yourself. If you use that monkey wrench until I give the word the Blue Star Navigation Company will have a new port engineer. Undress these fellows. Just remove their caps and outer garments and be quick about it." "Tell them to molt muy pronto!"
I heard fierce cries, the smash of overturned boards and lights, and remembered no more than some terrific blows delivered with my left, as Molt of Cambridge taught me, a sharp pain in my right shoulder as a knife went home, the voice of Hall crying, "Make for the door the door," and the great yell of Captain Black above the others.
Naturally it's the sort of job for which you want a bald-headed man, because a fellow who's got nice thick curls will cheat the house by taking a good deal of the product home with him. To tell the truth, Sol's hair had been worrying me almost as much as his system. When I hired him I'd supposed he'd finally molt it along with his musical tail-feathers.
Now and then, it is true, species like the so-called tent caterpillar are met with where numerous larvæ spin silken communal nests to which they retire at night and in which they remain to molt. The pupa, like the larva, is individualistic and employs its time in producing the final adult form.
Other MSS. are rather fuller: "Et Messires Gauvain savoit Plus que nus hons vivant de plaies, Unes herbe voit les une haies Qu'il connoissoit lonc temps avoit Que son mestre apris li avoit Enseigniee et bien moustree, Et il l'avoit bien esgardee Si l'a molt bien reconneue." We find reference to Gawain's possession of medical knowledge elsewhere.
I have fine roosters a year old this April; would you advise keeping them for mating with the same hens next season, or do you advise selling each year and getting fresh stock? The young males will be all right to mate with the same hens next season that is, if they come through the molt with vigor. They will be just two years old and at their best. The molt is the test for both, hens and cocks.

Big Toomai went up to the clerk with Little Toomai behind him, and Machua Appa, the head tracker, said in an undertone to a friend of his, "There goes one piece of good elephant stuff at least. 'Tis a pity to send that young jungle-cock to molt in the plains." Now Petersen Sahib had ears all over him, as a man must have who listens to the most silent of all living things the wild elephant.
And if we ever see your ugly face about here again, we'll " "You'll what?" inquired Mahaffy. "We'll fix you out with feathers that won't molt, that's what!" Mr. Mahaffy seemed to hesitate. His lean hands opened and closed, and he met the eyes of the crowd with a bitter, venomous stare. Some one gave him a shove and he staggered forward a step, snapping out a curse.
I do not think politicians know how slight the respect which is now generally felt for Parliament, or how weary sensible people have grown of it and its factions. "We are very happy down here. We have lost the Molt, but have a very tolerable substitute for it.
