Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Green Hand's First Cruise, Roughed Out From the Log-Book of Memory, of Twenty-Five Years Standing, Vol. 2 of 2: Together With a Residence of Five Months in Dartmoor
I was far from being sleepy for hours after this, and was devising the best preventive against vermin so loathsome; and I fully resolved, as far as taste went, that I was decidedly against harbouring any such, however close the connection, rich in blood or renowned in pedigree. It seemed strange to me, that the Doctor exhibited so much indifference to a subject so revolting, knowing that he was from a good family, well educated, and even here, his dress was clean and neat, as were his blankets and bed ding in the nicest order. I thought of but little else than the subject of the Doctor's mirth and my squeamishness for some'time; but at last, I fell asleep, and did not awaken until long after others around me had turned out and were moving.
