So we all had to set to work to bale out water, and mop up our bed-rooms; and as the wave had also put out what lights there were, we had to work in the dark, and very uncomfortable work it was! What the women and children did, and the poor people who were sea-sick, I hardly know.
"But all was false and hollow, though his tongue Dropt manna; and could make the worse appear The better reason." Milton. "I will surely be recognized by some one, if I stay here this evening," Guy said, as he brushed his hair and readjusted his cravat, before a neat mirror in one of the prim bed-rooms of a Sparks street boarding- house.
He reserved an entire floor by wire, so that he has bed-rooms, dining-rooms, parlors, reception-halls and private offices all together.

If for financial reasons it is not possible to have separate bed-rooms, the German custom of having separate beds should be adopted. The Consummation of Marriage.
