Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


"By the wind," he shouted to her, as he bounded for'ard. "Put your
helm hard up or we'll be all aback."


Ah!--yeoman and henchman of the race, he could not fail in his
fidelity to the ship under his command. The iron of all his years of
iron training was there manifest. While mutiny spread red, and death
was on the wing, he could not forget his charge, the ship, the
Elsinore, the insensate fabric compounded of steel and hemp and woven
cotton that was to him glorious with personality.
