00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.720
past the bottom,

00:00:01.260 --> 00:00:02.020
and out in the

00:00:02.020 --> 00:00:02.840
solemn rain at

00:00:02.840 --> 00:00:03.020
that.

00:00:03.620 --> 00:00:04.840
This was pleasuring

00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:06.100
with a vengeance.

00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:08.120
It was an

00:00:08.120 --> 00:00:09.080
appropriate relief

00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:09.940
when the gong

00:00:09.940 --> 00:00:11.060
sounded for prayer

00:00:11.060 --> 00:00:11.400
meeting.

00:00:11.980 --> 00:00:12.720
The first Saturday

00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:13.980
night of any other

00:00:13.980 --> 00:00:15.000
pleasure excursion

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:15.540
might have been

00:00:15.540 --> 00:00:17.540
devoted to wist and

00:00:17.540 --> 00:00:18.220
dancing.

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:20.140
But I submit it to

00:00:20.140 --> 00:00:20.960
the unprejudiced

00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:21.920
mind if it would

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:22.700
have been in good

00:00:22.700 --> 00:00:23.700
taste for us to

00:00:23.700 --> 00:00:24.540
engage in such

00:00:24.540 --> 00:00:25.180
frivolities,

00:00:25.860 --> 00:00:26.920
considering what we

00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:27.620
had gone through

00:00:27.620 --> 00:00:28.480
and the frame of

00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:29.300
mind we were in.

00:00:29.840 --> 00:00:30.960
We would have shone

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:31.420
at awake,

00:00:31.980 --> 00:00:33.000
but not at anything

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:34.040
more festive.

00:00:34.940 --> 00:00:36.120
However, there is

00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:36.900
always a cheering

00:00:36.900 --> 00:00:37.880
influence about the

00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:39.080
sea, and in my

00:00:39.080 --> 00:00:39.900
birth that night,

00:00:40.060 --> 00:00:40.920
rocked by the

00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:41.860
measured swell of

00:00:41.860 --> 00:00:42.600
the waves and

00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:43.500
lulled by the

00:00:43.500 --> 00:00:44.020
murmur of the

00:00:44.020 --> 00:00:44.640
distant surf,

00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.000
I soon passed

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:47.100
tranquilly out of

00:00:47.100 --> 00:00:47.800
all consciousness

00:00:47.800 --> 00:00:48.580
of the dreary

00:00:48.580 --> 00:00:49.620
experiences of the

00:00:49.620 --> 00:00:49.860
day,

00:00:50.420 --> 00:00:51.240
and damaging

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:52.400
premonitions of the

00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:52.700
future.

00:00:56.060 --> 00:00:57.320
CHAPTER III

00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:58.900
AVERAGING THE

00:00:58.900 --> 00:01:00.440
PASSENTERS, FAR,

00:01:00.740 --> 00:01:01.800
FAR, AT SEA,

00:01:02.180 --> 00:01:03.160
TRIBULATION AMONG

00:01:03.160 --> 00:01:04.120
THE PATRIARKS,

00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:05.600
SEEKING AMUSEMENT

00:01:05.600 --> 00:01:05.980
UNDER DIVINE
