Look'ee, shipmate, in all this crew there are no more than twenty men I can count on, nay, less ten only can I swear by. See now, here's you and Merrilees and Godby, here's Farnaby and Toby Hudd the bo'sun, Treliving the carpenter, and McLean his mate, here's Robins and Perks and Taffery the armourer good mariners all. These I can trust, shipmate, but never another one!"
