Quotation from: The Arrow of Gold

Written by: Joseph Conrad


But the trip had been successful. We re-entered the harbour very
quietly as usual and when our craft had been moored
unostentatiously amongst the plebeian stone-carriers, Dominic,
whose grim joviality had subsided in the last twenty-four hours of
our homeward run, abandoned me to myself as though indeed I had
been a doomed man. He only stuck his head for a moment into our
little cuddy where I was changing my clothes and being told in
answer to his question that I had no special orders to give went
ashore without waiting for me.
