1"But see here, Stubb, I thought you a little boasted just now, that you meant to give Fedallah a sea-toss, if you got a
2good chance. Now, if he's so old as all those hoops of yours come to, and if he is going to live for ever, what good
3will it do to pitch him overboard--tell me that? "Give him a good ducking, anyhow." "But he'd crawl back." "Duck him
4again; and keep ducking him." "Suppose he should take it into his head to duck you, though--yes, and drown you--what
5then?" "I should like to see him try it; I'd give him such a pair of black eyes that he wouldn't dare to show his face
6in the admiral's cabin again for a long while, let alone down in the orlop there, where he lives, and hereabouts on the
7upper decks where he sneaks so much. Damn the devil, Flask; so you suppose I'm afraid of the devil? Who's afraid of him,
8except the old governor who daresn't catch him and put him in double-darbies, as he deserves, but lets him go about
9kidnapping people; aye, and signed a bond with him, that all the people the devil kidnapped, he'd roast for him? There's
10a governor!" "Do you suppose Fedallah wants to kidnap Captain Ahab?" "Do I suppose it? You'll know it before long,
11Flask. But I am going now to keep a sharp look-out on him; and if I see anything very suspicious going on, I'll just
12take him by the nape of his neck, and say--Look here, Beelzebub, you don't do it; and if he makes any fuss, by the Lord
13I'll make a grab into his pocket for his tail, take it to the capstan, and give him such a wrenching and heaving, that
14his tail will come short off at the stump--do you see; and then, I rather guess when he finds himself docked in that
15queer fashion, he'll sneak off without the poor satisfaction of feeling his tail between his legs." "And what will you
16do with the tail, Stubb?" "Do with it? Sell it for an ox whip when we get home;--what else?" "Now, do you mean what you
17say, and have been saying all along, Stubb?" "Mean or not mean, here we are at the ship." The boats were here hailed, to
18tow the whale on the larboard side, where fluke chains and other necessaries were already prepared for securing him.
19"Didn't I tell you so?" said Flask; "yes, you'll soon see this right whale's head hoisted up opposite that
20parmacetti's." In good time, Flask's saying proved true. As before, the Pequod steeply leaned over towards the sperm
21whale's head, now, by the counterpoise of both heads, she regained her even keel; though sorely strained, you may well
22believe. So, when on one side you hoist in Locke's head, you go over that way; but now, on the other side, hoist in
23Kant's and you come back again; but in very poor plight. Thus, some minds for ever keep trimming boat. Oh, ye foolish!
24throw all these thunder-heads overboard, and then you will float light and right. In disposing of the body of a right
25whale, when brought alongside the ship, the same preliminary proceedings commonly take place as in the case of a sperm
26whale; only, in the latter instance, the head is cut off whole, but in the former the lips and tongue are separately
27removed and hoisted on deck, with all the well known black bone attached to what is called the crown-piece. But nothing
28like this, in the present case, had been done. The carcases of both whales had dropped astern; and the head-laden ship
29not a little resembled a mule carrying a pair of overburdening panniers. Meantime, Fedallah was calmly eyeing the right
30whale's head, and ever and anon glancing from the deep wrinkles there to the lines in his own hand. And Ahab chanced so
31to stand, that the Parsee occupied his shadow; while, if the Parsee's shadow was there at all it seemed only to blend
32with, and lengthen Ahab's. As the crew toiled on, Laplandish speculations were bandied among them, concerning all these
33passing things.
