1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,320
Why, I'm not trying to improve it, and I am singing like the others, just as it is

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:11,280
in the notes. And he honestly thought he was, too. And so he had no one to blame but himself

3
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:17,280
when his voice caught on the centre, occasionally, and gave him the lock -jaw. There were those

4
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:22,460
among the unregenerated who attributed the unceasing headwinds to our distressing

5
00:00:22,460 --> 00:00:27,240
choir music. There were those who said openly that it was taking chances enough

6
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:32,600
stuff, to have such ghastly music going on, even when it was at its best, and that to

7
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,920
exaggerate the crime by letting George help was simply flying in the face of Providence.

8
00:00:37,660 --> 00:00:42,860
These said that the choir would keep up their lacerating attempts at melody until they

9
00:00:42,860 --> 00:00:48,600
would bring down a storm some day that would sink the ship. There were even grumblers

10
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:54,480
at the prayers. The executive officers said the pilgrims had no charity. There they

11
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,740
They are, down there, every night at eight bells, praying for fair winds, when they know

12
00:00:59,740 --> 00:01:04,700
as well as I do that this is the only ship going east this time of the year, but there's

13
00:01:04,700 --> 00:01:05,900
a thousand coming west.
