Excerpt from The Brassbounder: A Tale of the Sea

Eyes? One might as well have no eyes. Out board the ship there is nothing to be seen save the swell breaking at the bows as the vessel moves slowly on her course. Only ears are of use to us and the heads of the watchkeepers trim and cant, this way and that, in our efforts to catch a whisper from beyond the curtain that enshrouds us.
