So ended that mutiny, by the brave act of a brave man. The carpenter was clapt into irons himself, and given no less of the cat-o'-nine-tails than was good for him, and properly discharged at Tobago with such as had supported him.
I will go down, though 'tis almost dark, on pretence of getting a little air and composure. Robert has my two former, I hope, before now: and I will deposit this, with Lovelace's enclosed, if I can, for fear of another search. I know not what I shall do! All is so strangely busy! Doors clapt to going out of one apartment, hurryingly, as I may say, into another.
As for getting off, when we had enough of it, and had washed our decks down pretty well, we called all hands, for, dye see, the watch below was in their hammocks, all the same as if they were in one of your best bedrooms; and so we watched for a smooth time, clapt her helm hard a weather, let fall the foresail, and got the tack aboard; and so, when we got her afore it, I ask you, Mistress Prettybones, if she didnt walk? didnt she?
Then the bold Gito, drawing out that part of him Tryphoena most admired, clapt a bloody razor to't, and threaten'd to cut away the cause of all our misfortunes, but Tryphoena did not faintly send to prevent so cruel an act: I often offer'd at my throat too, but with as little design to kill my self as Gito to do what he threaten'd: he the more boldly handl'd his because he knew it to be the same blunt razor he had us'd before; which made Tryphoena very apprehensive of his tragic intentions.
Madam, feare nothing, be not troubled; the Goast meant no harme to you, uppon my life he did not; Goe to and goe to, I say and I sayt, he did not. He did appeare to me your love, your husband, my old Mr. here, clapt me on the shoulder, as his old custome was still when he usd to talke with me familiarly. Lady. But, Sirrah, what familiarity Have you with any of my privasies?
I tell thee, they are giants; and therefore if thou art afraid, go aside and say thy prayers, for I am resolved to engage in a dreadful unequal combat against them all." This said, he clapt spurs to his horse Rozinante, without giving ear to his squire Sancho, who bawled out to him, and assured him that they were windmills, and no giants.
Do Maud and Stephen for the crown contend? Do Barons rise and side against their King, And call in foreign aid to help the thing? Must Edward be deposed? or is't the hour That second Richard must be clapt i' th' tower? Or is't the fatal jarre again begun That from the red white pricking roses sprung? Must Richmond's aid, the Nobles now implore, To come and break the Tushes of the Boar?
"The moment she clapt eyes on him, she called to him for help. 'Oh, sais she, 'for heaven's sake, good man, help me up! Jist take hold of my leg and draw me back, will you, that's a good soul? And then she held up fust one leg for him, and then the other, most beseechin', but nothin' would move him. He jist stopt, looked back for a moment and then progressed agin.
Then the Cid clapt spurs to the mule upon which he rode, and vaulted into a piece of ground which was his own inheritance, and answered, Sir, I am not in your land, but in my own. And the King replied full wrathfully, Go out of my kingdoms without any delay.
"If we had gone ashore among those Frieslanders, we should have been only knocked on the head outright; but if we fall among the Frenchmen, we shall be clapt in prison strong, and tortured till we find ransom." "I don't see that," said Martin. "We can all be drowned if we like, I suppose?" "Drowned we need not be, if we be men," said the old sailing-master to Hereward.
