I tell ye, life on shipboard ain't what it looks to be on shore. I hadn't been aboard more'n three hours afore I was the sickest critter that ever ye did see; and I tell you, I didn't get no kind o' compassion. Cap'ns and mates they allers thinks boys hain't no kind o' business to have no bowels nor nothin', and they put it on 'em sick or well.

"Begorrah, but it's ourselves that's the sickest," laughed Teddy, fully sensible of his sad condition.
"It has been a comfort to me, even when I was sickest, even when I apparently didn't know anything, to know that you were here, that everything was running smoothly and comfortably, thanks to you.

We had but a dozen mutineers on board," replied the vice-principal, "and they are about the sickest dogs you ever saw. I kept them in the steerage, and fed them on salt beef and hard bread, as you suggested to me." "Did you give them any water?" "Not a drop.
"Or a snail," remarked Judge Twiddler. "N no; none of those." "Is it an elephant or a walrus?" asked Mrs. Dox. "I guess I'll have to give it up," said Mr. Lamb, wiping the perspiration from his brow.
