Here's Captain Flint, predicting success to our voyage.
Wasn't you, Captain?
Now, that bird, he would say, is maybe two hundred years old, Hawkins.
They live forever mostly.
And if anybody's seen more wickedness, it must be the devil himself.
She sailed with England, the great captain England, the pirate.
She's been at Madagascar, and at Malabar, and Suriname, and Providence and Portobello.
She was at the fishing up of the wrecked plate ships.
It's there she learned, pieces of eight, and little wonder, three hundred and fifty thousand of 'em, Hawkins.
She was at the boarding of the Viceroy of the Indies out of Goa, she was, and to look at her you would think she was a baby.
But you smelt powder, didn't you, Captain?
You can't touch pitch and not be mucked, lad.
Here's this poor old innocent bird of mine swearin' blue fire, and none the wiser you may lay to that.
She would swear the same in a manner of speaking, before a chaplain.
No, not I said Silver.
Flint was captain, I was quartermaster, along of my timber leg.
The same broadside I lost my leg, old Pew lost his deadlights.
It was a master surgeon, him that amputated me, out of college and all, lattin' by the bucket and whatnot.
But he was hanged like a dog, and sun dried like the rest, at Corso Castle.
That was Robert's men, that was, and come to changin' names to their ships.
