Cricket turned, reluctantly, and at the same moment Will called "Hard-a-lee!" as the boom swung over, and the boat obeyed her helm, and came round. Cricket was still facing outward, and, as the boat keeled, she suddenly lost her balance, grasped at the mast which she had let go, missed it, and disappeared over the bows with a great splash.
"And I tried to scrame and me tongue stuck " "Sure! You poor lamb! My tongue always sticks! Just what I ixpicted!" "And me head just went round and I keeled over in the bushes " "I've told Dolan a thousand times! I knew it! It's no news to me!" "And whin I came to, they were gone, and I don't know where, and I don't care! But I won't go back! I won't go back! I'll not live with him another day.
And by the eternal Poles! these same Trades that so directly blow my good ship on; these Trades, or something like them something so unchangeable, and full as strong, blow my keeled soul along! To it! Aloft there! What d'ye see?" "Nothing, sir." "Nothing! and noon at hand! The doubloon goes a-begging! See the sun! Aye, aye, it must be so. I've over-sailed him. How, got the start?
The schooner had her mainsail and foresail up, both bellying far outward under the impulse of the wind, while the hull keeled far over to the right in response, and the foaming water at the bow told that she was making her way at high speed toward her destination, wherever that might be.
"Ouch!" yelled the boy; "stop that!" He twisted his head around, and seeing the black again make a movement with the spear, Rob turned his electric tube upon him and keeled him over like a ten-pin. The natives, who had looked up at his cry of pain, again prostrated themselves, kicking their toes against the ground in a terrified tattoo at this new evidence of the god's powers.
It was a twenty-four-foot crocodile, cased in what looked like treble-riveted boiler-plate, studded and keeled and crested; the yellow points of his upper teeth just overhanging his beautifully fluted lower jaw.
"I saw just a flash of dark blue, coming at me like the lightning express, and then I was keeled over just as if I had been a bag of meal, sir!" "He bunted into you, did he?" asked Jack. "Who was it?" "Indeed I don't know, sir," was the reply. "It was dim in the room, there being only the light from the hall as I opened the door.
After a keen sail before the wind, this fourth boat the swiftest keeled of all seemed to have succeeded in fastening at least, as well as the man at the mast-head could tell anything about it.
"It's a three-masted schooner," bawled Captain Peters, "and she's where the life-boat can't reach her, but our wreck-gun will. That craft has keeled over on Deep Rock, near the very P'int itself! Get out the gun!" The men now took from the cart a small cannon, then a mass of rope, and then a rope of larger size. "Take out that life-car, too!" shouted Captain Peters.
"I perfect my English," she said. Tea was finished; they were smoking, the Evening News spread between them over the tea-things. She articulated with a strong French accent the words of some of the headings. "Mistair Carlos Smith keeled at the front," she read out. "Who is it, that woman there? She must be celebrated."
