Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


But to return. Mr. Pike had just relieved me yesterday afternoon,
when the second mate climbed the forecastle-head and sauntered to the
very eyes of the Elsinore, where he stood gazing overside.


"Take a crack at 'm," Mr. Pike said.


It was a long shot, and I was taking slow and careful aim, when he
touched my arm.


"No; don't," he said.
