Look
ye
,
pudding-heads
should
never
grant
premises
.
--
How
long
before
the
leg
is
done
?
Perhaps
an
hour
,
sir
.
Bungle
away
at
it
then
,
and
bring
it
to
me
(
turns
to
go
)
.
Oh
,
Life
.
Here
I
am
,
proud
as
Greek
god
,
and
yet
standing
debtor
to
this
blockhead
for
a
bone
to
stand
on
!
Cursed
be
that
mortal
inter-indebtedness
which
will
not
do
away
with
ledgers
.
I
would
be
free
as
air
;
and
I
'm
down
in
the
whole
world
's
books
.
I
am
so
rich
,
I
could
have
given
bid
for
bid
with
the
wealthiest
Praetorians
at
the
auction
of
the
Roman
empire
(
which
was
the
world
's
)
;
and
yet
I
owe
for
the
flesh
in
the
tongue
I
brag
with
.
By
heavens
!
I
'll
get
a
crucible
,
and
into
it
,
and
dissolve
myself
down
to
one
small
,
compendious
vertebra
.
So
.
CARPENTER
(
resuming
work
)
.
Well
,
well
,
well
!
Stubb
knows
him
best
of
all
,
and
Stubb
always
says
he
's
queer
;
says
nothing
but
that
one
sufficient
little
word
queer
;
he
's
queer
,
says
Stubb
;
he
's
queer
--
queer
,
queer
;
and
keeps
dinning
it
into
Mr.
Starbuck
all
the
time
--
queer
--
sir
--
queer
,
queer
,
very
queer
.
And
here
's
his
leg
.
Yes
,
now
that
I
think
of
it
,
here
's
his
bed-fellow
!
has
a
stick
of
whale
's
jaw-bone
for
a
wife
!
And
this
is
his
leg
;
he
'll
stand
on
this
.
What
was
that
now
about
one
leg
standing
in
three
places
,
and
all
three
places
standing
in
one
hell
--
how
was
that
?
Oh
!
I
do
n't
wonder
he
looked
so
scornful
at
me
!
I
'm
a
sort
of
strange-thoughted
sometimes
,
they
say
;
but
that
's
only
haphazard-like
Then
,
a
short
,
little
old
body
like
me
,
should
never
undertake
to
wade
out
into
deep
water
with
tall
,
heron-built
captains
;
the
water
chucks
you
under
the
chin
pretty
quick
,
and
there
's
a
great
cry
for
life-boats
.
And
here
's
the
heron
's
leg
!
long
and
slim
,
sure
enough
!
Now
,
for
most
folks
one
pair
of
legs
lasts
a
lifetime
,
and
that
must
be
because
they
use
them
mercifully
,
as
a
tender-hearted
old
lady
uses
her
roly-poly
old
coach-horses
.
But
Ahab
;
oh
he
's
a
hard
driver
.
Look
,
driven
one
leg
to
death
,
and
spavined
the
other
for
life
,
and
now
wears
out
bone
legs
by
the
cord
.
Halloa
,
there
,
you
Smut
!
bear
a
hand
there
with
those
screws
,
and
let
's
finish
it
before
the
resurrection
fellow
comes
a-calling
with
his
horn
for
all
legs
,
true
or
false
,
as
brewery
men
go
round
collecting
old
beer
barrels
,
to
fill
'
em
up
again
.
What
a
leg
this
is
!
It
looks
like
a
real
live
leg
,
filed
down
to
nothing
but
the
core
;
he
'll
be
standing
on
this
to-morrow
;
he
'll
be
taking
altitudes
on
it
.
Halloa
!
I
almost
forgot
the
little
oval
slate
,
smoothed
ivory
,
where
he
figures
up
the
latitude
.
So
,
so
;
chisel
,
file
,
and
sand-paper
,
now
!
According
to
usage
they
were
pumping
the
ship
next
morning
;
and
lo
!
no
inconsiderable
oil
came
up
with
the
water
;
the
casks
below
must
have
sprung
a
bad
leak
.
Much
concern
was
shown
;
and
Starbuck
went
down
into
the
cabin
to
report
this
unfavorable
affair
.
Now
,
from
the
South
and
West
the
Pequod
was
drawing
nigh
to
Formosa
and
the
Bashee
Isles
,
between
which
lies
one
of
the
tropical
outlets
from
the
China
waters
into
the
Pacific
.
And
so
Starbuck
found
Ahab
with
a
general
chart
of
the
oriental
archipelagoes
spread
before
him
;
and
another
separate
one
representing
the
long
eastern
coasts
of
the
Japanese
islands
--
Niphon
,
Matsmai
,
and
Sikoke
.
With
his
snow-white
new
ivory
leg
braced
against
the
screwed
leg
of
his
table
,
and
with
a
long
pruning-hook
of
a
jack-knife
in
his
hand
,
the
wondrous
old
man
,
with
his
back
to
the
gangway
door
,
was
wrinkling
his
brow
,
and
tracing
his
old
courses
again
.
"
Who
's
there
?
"
hearing
the
footstep
at
the
door
,
but
not
turning
round
to
it
.
"
On
deck
!
Begone
!
"
"
Captain
Ahab
mistakes
;
it
is
I
.
The
oil
in
the
hold
is
leaking
,
sir
.
We
must
up
Burtons
and
break
out
.
