Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


"Isn't it splendid!" Miss West shouted into my ear, close beside me,
as we clung to the railing of the break of the poop.


"Superb!" I shouted back, my lips to her ear, so that her hair
tickled my face.


And, I know not why--it must have been spontaneous with both of us--
in that shouting blackness of wind, as we clung to the rail to avoid
being blown away, our hands went out to each other and my hand and
hers gripped and pressed and then held mutually to the rail.
