Quotation from: Elsinore

"I think we are going to have a fine sunset," Captain West remarked
last evening.

Miss West and I abandoned our rubber of cribbage and hastened on
deck. The sunset had not yet come, but all was preparing. As we
gazed we could see the sky gathering the materials, grouping the gray
clouds in long lines and towering masses, spreading its palette with
slow-growing, glowing tints and sudden blobs of colour.
