But
I
had
not
proceeded
far
,
when
I
began
to
bethink
me
that
the
Captain
with
whom
I
was
to
sail
yet
remained
unseen
by
me
;
though
,
indeed
,
in
many
cases
,
a
whale-ship
will
be
completely
fitted
out
,
and
receive
all
her
crew
on
board
,
ere
the
captain
makes
himself
visible
by
arriving
to
take
command
;
for
sometimes
these
voyages
are
so
prolonged
,
and
the
shore
intervals
at
home
so
exceedingly
brief
,
that
if
the
captain
have
family
,
or
any
absorbing
concernment
of
that
sort
,
he
does
not
trouble
himself
much
about
his
ship
in
port
,
but
leaves
her
to
the
owners
till
all
is
ready
for
sea
.
However
,
it
is
always
as
well
to
have
a
look
at
him
before
irrevocably
committing
yourself
into
his
hands
.
Turning
back
I
accosted
Captain
Peleg
,
inquiring
where
Captain
Ahab
was
to
be
found
.
"
And
what
dost
thou
want
of
Captain
Ahab
?
It
's
all
right
enough
;
thou
art
shipped
.
"
"
Yes
,
but
I
should
like
to
see
him
.
"
"
But
I
do
n't
think
thou
wilt
be
able
to
at
present
.
I
do
n't
know
exactly
what
's
the
matter
with
him
;
but
he
keeps
close
inside
the
house
;
a
sort
of
sick
,
and
yet
he
do
n't
look
so
.
In
fact
,
he
ai
n't
sick
;
but
no
,
he
is
n't
well
either
.
Any
how
,
young
man
,
he
wo
n't
always
see
me
,
so
I
do
n't
suppose
he
will
thee
.
He
's
a
queer
man
,
Captain
Ahab
--
so
some
think
--
but
a
good
one
.
Oh
,
thou
'
lt
like
him
well
enough
;
no
fear
,
no
fear
.
He
's
a
grand
,
ungodly
,
god-like
man
,
Captain
Ahab
;
does
n't
speak
much
;
but
,
when
he
does
speak
,
then
you
may
well
listen
.
Mark
ye
,
be
forewarned
;
Ahab
's
above
the
common
;
Ahab
's
been
in
colleges
,
as
well
as
'
mong
the
cannibals
;
been
used
to
deeper
wonders
than
the
waves
;
fixed
his
fiery
lance
in
mightier
,
stranger
foes
than
whales
.
His
lance
!
aye
,
the
keenest
and
surest
that
out
of
all
our
isle
!
Oh
!
he
ai
n't
Captain
Bildad
;
no
,
and
he
ai
n't
Captain
Peleg
;
he
's
Ahab
,
boy
;
and
Ahab
of
old
,
thou
knowest
,
was
a
crowned
king
!
"
"
And
a
very
vile
one
.
When
that
wicked
king
was
slain
,
the
dogs
,
did
they
not
lick
his
blood
?
"
"
Come
hither
to
me
--
hither
,
hither
,
"
said
Peleg
,
with
a
significance
in
his
eye
that
almost
startled
me
.
"
Look
ye
,
lad
;
never
say
that
on
board
the
Pequod
.
Never
say
it
anywhere
.
Captain
Ahab
did
not
name
himself
.
'
Twas
a
foolish
,
ignorant
whim
of
his
crazy
,
widowed
mother
,
who
died
when
he
was
only
a
twelvemonth
old
.
And
yet
the
old
squaw
Tistig
,
at
Gayhead
,
said
that
the
name
would
somehow
prove
prophetic
.
And
,
perhaps
,
other
fools
like
her
may
tell
thee
the
same
.
I
wish
to
warn
thee
.
It
's
a
lie
.
I
know
Captain
Ahab
well
;
I
've
sailed
with
him
as
mate
years
ago
;
know
what
he
is
--
a
good
man
--
not
a
pious
,
good
man
,
like
Bildad
,
but
a
swearing
good
man
--
something
like
me
--
only
there
's
a
good
deal
more
of
him
.
Aye
,
aye
,
I
know
that
he
was
never
very
jolly
;
and
I
know
that
on
the
passage
home
he
was
a
little
out
of
his
mind
for
a
spell
;
but
it
was
the
sharp
shooting
pains
in
his
bleeding
stump
that
brought
that
about
,
as
any
one
might
see
.
I
know
,
too
,
that
ever
since
he
lost
his
leg
last
voyage
by
that
accursed
whale
,
he
's
been
a
kind
of
moody
--
desperate
moody
,
and
savage
sometimes
;
but
that
will
all
pass
off
.
And
once
for
all
,
let
me
tell
thee
and
assure
thee
,
young
man
,
it
's
better
to
sail
with
a
moody
good
captain
than
a
laughing
bad
one
.
So
good-bye
to
thee
--
and
wrong
not
Captain
Ahab
,
because
he
happens
to
have
a
wicked
name
.
Besides
,
my
boy
,
he
has
a
wife
--
not
three
voyages
wedded
--
a
sweet
,
resigned
girl
.
Think
of
that
;
by
that
sweet
girl
that
old
man
had
a
child
:
hold
ye
then
there
can
be
any
utter
,
hopeless
harm
in
Ahab
?
No
,
no
,
my
lad
;
stricken
,
blasted
,
if
he
be
,
Ahab
has
his
humanities
!
"
As
I
walked
away
,
I
was
full
of
thoughtfulness
;
what
had
been
incidentally
revealed
to
me
of
Captain
Ahab
,
filled
me
with
a
certain
wild
vagueness
of
painfulness
concerning
him
.
And
somehow
,
at
the
time
,
I
felt
a
sympathy
and
a
sorrow
for
him
,
but
for
I
do
n't
know
what
,
unless
it
was
the
cruel
loss
of
his
leg
.
And
yet
I
also
felt
a
strange
awe
of
him
;
but
that
sort
of
awe
,
which
I
can
not
at
all
describe
,
was
not
exactly
awe
;
I
do
not
know
what
it
was
.
But
I
felt
it
;
and
it
did
not
disincline
me
towards
him
;
though
I
felt
impatience
at
what
seemed
like
mystery
in
him
,
so
imperfectly
as
he
was
known
to
me
then
.
However
,
my
thoughts
were
at
length
carried
in
other
directions
,
so
that
for
the
present
dark
Ahab
slipped
my
mind
.
As
Queequeg
's
Ramadan
,
or
Fasting
and
Humiliation
,
was
to
continue
all
day
,
I
did
not
choose
to
disturb
him
till
towards
night-fall
;
for
I
cherish
the
greatest
respect
towards
everybody
's
religious
obligations
,
never
mind
how
comical
,
and
could
not
find
it
in
my
heart
to
undervalue
even
a
congregation
of
ants
worshipping
a
toad-stool
;
or
those
other
creatures
in
certain
parts
of
our
earth
,
who
with
a
degree
of
footmanism
quite
unprecedented
in
other
planets
,
bow
down
before
the
torso
of
a
deceased
landed
proprietor
merely
on
account
of
the
inordinate
possessions
yet
owned
and
rented
in
his
name
.
