There has always been an impression in my mind that there was in this extraordinary speech just a suspicion of a disposition to guy his brother: for not only were the terms that he used entirely foreign to his character, their outré tenor bordering on the ridiculous, but it is impossible for anyone who has ever heard him chaffing his seasick brother while out yachting, putting his head in at the cabin door every now and again, and calling out, "Well, Willie, how do you feel now, and what has become of your imperial dignity?" to believe that he was really serious when he so solemnly ascribed divine attributes to this selfsame Willie.
Earlier in his life he made a mess of your and my profession. He is travelling with his daughter, not an uninteresting little miss. She's been dreadfully seasick, and hasn't left the horizontal in her berth since we set sail from Bremen. That dark fellow sitting next to Hahlström seems to be something like, well, let us say, her fiancé." "By the way, what do you do for seasickness?"
When the vessel got out into the heavy seas and began to pitch and wallow, the cavern prisoners became immediately seasick, and then the peculiar results that ensued laid all my previous experiences of the kind well away in the shade. And the wails, the groans, the cries, the shrieks, the strange ejaculations it was wonderful.
"Never mind," said Timar; "somebody must live on one shore or the other. There are lambs and kids everywhere, and one can get anything for money." Another misfortune set in. The anchored ship was so rolled about by the wind-driven waves of the river, that Timéa got seasick and frightened. Perhaps there was some house where she and her father could spend the night.
Thus he embarked for the future, "with a wife, an opera and a half, a small purse, and a terribly large and terribly voracious Newfoundland dog." The composer, his wife, and the dog were all three outrageously seasick. They arrived finally after violent storms in London, where the chief event was the loss of the dog.
The boat rolled and pitched on the old swell, making him a trifle seasick. A wave of disgust swept over him. This was no place for the son of a millionaire. He wished himself back on the land. By the time they reached Tarpaulin, at about half past four, all the six trawls were baited. "We won't set them till day after to-morrow," determined Jim.
"No, we didn't have any cabin boy. Next " "Maybe the second fireman caught it." "No, this was a bark an' we didn't have no second fireman, nor fust, neither. Next " "Maybe the cat, or don't cats get seasick?" "The cat. Why, mate " "I see some cats get sick, but that may not be seasick, even though you can see the sickness," went on Tom, soberly. "I don't know as we had a cat on board.
"Brutus is fond of the boy. He will not hurt him." "But the boy might hurt the nigger," said Mr. Aiken. My father nodded blandly toward the hall. "And you might be seasick," he said. "Har," roared Mr. Aiken, seemingly struck by the subtle humor of the remark. "Damned if you wouldn't joke if the deck was blowing off under you. Damned if I ever seen the likes of you now, captain."
Inquiry led to the fact that the woman had passed a night of intense agitation as the result of misconduct on the part of her husband. People who are seasick some hours after a meal vomit undigested food. Apprehension of being sick has probably inhibited the gastric activities. Homesickness is not to be regarded lightly as a cause of malnutrition.
I s'pose I found scraps here an' thar, but I like to sing it when the night is behavin' jest as it's doin' now. I ain't ever seen the sea, Harry, but it must be a mighty sight, particklarly when the wind's makin' the high waves run." "Very likely you'd be seasick if you were on it then. I like it best when the waves are not running."
