Never was a more beautiful day, nor a more gallant spectacle, than when the ship to which Lieutenant was attached, got underway, and departed for her last cruise in the West India seas. Every sail was set, and so clear was the atmosphere, that the light tracery of her rigging was seen against the sky, as she bore down through the Narrows.
Gunther was flushed but he snapped, "Go ahead then, but don't think any of we Genoese are being taken in." Watson said, "True enough, it took us a time to unite our people ..." "Time and blood," Peter MacDonald muttered. "... But once underway the Texcocan State has moved on in a progression unknown in any of the Genoese nations.
If I was a healthy youngster, and couldn't get along with seven hours and a half of solid sleep, I'd take the next forenoon for it. Just at present, I want to remark that I've got the coffee and potato business underway, and I'll attend to them. If you want anything else for breakfast, you'll have to cook it." And the boys, rising to the occasion, go about the breakfast with willing hands.
While the French were getting underway from Trincomalee, the British fleet was standing south-south-east towards the entrance, close-hauled on the starboard tack, a fresh south-west monsoon blowing. Suffren pursued, being to windward yet astern, with his fleet on a line of bearing; that is, the line on which the ships were ranged was not the same as the course which they were steering.
Gould saw that he was staring with interest at the activity in the shed and grinned sympathetically. "Ever see a big rocket before?" "Only in pictures," Rick replied. "Well, you'll see plenty of them before we're through here." Rick hesitated. "Sir, is it okay to ask what this is all about?" "Sure it's okay. We have three projects underway at present.
He was on one of the camels, and the beast was protesting! Swaying motion began, and he knew his ungainly steed was underway. For a moment he seemed to see himself from a distance, wrapped like Cleopatra in a rug, tossed on a camel like a bag of old clothes, and carted unceremoniously away by a band of Arabs.
At a quarter before five, when they had all got underway, he sent off Captain Cole to the Admiral, and remained with his own ship to observe and embarrass their movements.
One of President Wingfield's first acts in May, 1607, after the construction of James Fort was underway, was the dispatch of a party to explore the river above Jamestown. Twenty-two men under Capt. Christopher Newport left on May 21 and proceeded inland to the falls of the James. Newport's shallop could go no further. And so it was for more than two years.
The programme finally concluded with a speech by the Director of the Farmers' Training Centre who told us about the general activities of the FTC and the ICAR. Some of the students took spawn-filled bottles home. I didn't, because I knew I wouldn't be in a position to get into action immediately as my travel plans for getting out of Goa for the next few months were already underway.
We got underway by six o'clock, when the night was just at its darkest, and it was next to impossible to discern any track on the spotless snow. Trusting to good luck to escape overturning, we followed in the wake of the skjutsbonde, who had mounted our baggage sled upon one of the country sledges, and rode perched upon his lofty seat.
