For
,
as
when
the
red-cheeked
,
dancing
girls
,
April
and
May
,
trip
home
to
the
wintry
,
misanthropic
woods
;
even
the
barest
,
ruggedest
,
most
thunder-cloven
old
oak
will
at
least
send
forth
some
few
green
sprouts
,
to
welcome
such
gladhearted
visitants
;
so
Ahab
did
,
in
the
end
,
a
little
respond
to
the
playful
allurings
of
that
girlish
air
.
More
than
once
did
he
put
forth
the
faint
blossom
of
a
look
,
which
,
in
any
other
man
,
would
have
soon
flowered
out
in
a
smile
.
Some
days
elapsed
,
and
ice
and
icebergs
all
astern
,
the
Pequod
now
went
rolling
through
the
bright
Quito
spring
,
which
at
sea
,
almost
perpetually
reigns
on
the
threshold
of
the
eternal
August
of
the
Tropic
.
The
warmly
cool
,
clear
,
ringing
perfumed
,
overflowing
,
redundant
days
,
were
as
crystal
goblets
of
Persian
sherbet
,
heaped
up
--
flaked
up
,
with
rose-water
snow
.
The
starred
and
stately
nights
seemed
haughty
dames
in
jewelled
velvets
,
nursing
at
home
in
lonely
pride
,
the
memory
of
their
absent
conquering
Earls
,
the
golden
helmeted
suns
!
For
sleeping
man
,
'
twas
hard
to
choose
between
such
winsome
days
and
such
seducing
nights
.
But
all
the
witcheries
of
that
unwaning
weather
did
not
merely
lend
new
spells
and
potencies
to
the
outward
world
.
Inward
they
turned
upon
the
soul
,
especially
when
the
still
mild
hours
of
eve
came
on
;
then
,
memory
shot
her
crystals
as
the
clear
ice
most
forms
of
noiseless
twilights
.
And
all
these
subtle
agencies
,
more
and
more
they
wrought
on
Ahab
's
texture
.
Old
age
is
always
wakeful
;
as
if
,
the
longer
linked
with
life
,
the
less
man
has
to
do
with
aught
that
looks
like
death
.
Among
sea-commanders
,
the
old
greybeards
will
oftenest
leave
their
berths
to
visit
the
night-cloaked
deck
.
It
was
so
with
Ahab
;
only
that
now
,
of
late
,
he
seemed
so
much
to
live
in
the
open
air
,
that
truly
speaking
,
his
visits
were
more
to
the
cabin
,
than
from
the
cabin
to
the
planks
.
"
It
feels
like
going
down
into
one
's
tomb
,
"
--
he
would
mutter
to
himself
--
"
for
an
old
captain
like
me
to
be
descending
this
narrow
scuttle
,
to
go
to
my
grave-dug
berth
.
"
So
,
almost
every
twenty-four
hours
,
when
the
watches
of
the
night
were
set
,
and
the
band
on
deck
sentinelled
the
slumbers
of
the
band
below
;
and
when
if
a
rope
was
to
be
hauled
upon
the
forecastle
,
the
sailors
flung
it
not
rudely
down
,
as
by
day
,
but
with
some
cautiousness
dropt
it
to
its
place
for
fear
of
disturbing
their
slumbering
shipmates
;
when
this
sort
of
steady
quietude
would
begin
to
prevail
,
habitually
,
the
silent
steersman
would
watch
the
cabin-scuttle
;
and
ere
long
the
old
man
would
emerge
,
gripping
at
the
iron
banister
,
to
help
his
crippled
way
.
Some
considering
touch
of
humanity
was
in
him
;
for
at
times
like
these
,
he
usually
abstained
from
patrolling
the
quarter-deck
;
because
to
his
wearied
mates
,
seeking
repose
within
six
inches
of
his
ivory
heel
,
such
would
have
been
the
reverberating
crack
and
din
of
that
bony
step
,
that
their
dreams
would
have
been
on
the
crunching
teeth
of
sharks
.
But
once
,
the
mood
was
on
him
too
deep
for
common
regardings
;
and
as
with
heavy
,
lumber-like
pace
he
was
measuring
the
ship
from
taffrail
to
mainmast
,
Stubb
,
the
old
second
mate
,
came
up
from
below
,
with
a
certain
unassured
,
deprecating
humorousness
,
hinted
that
if
Captain
Ahab
was
pleased
to
walk
the
planks
,
then
,
no
one
could
say
nay
;
but
there
might
be
some
way
of
muffling
the
noise
;
hinting
something
indistinctly
and
hesitatingly
about
a
globe
of
tow
,
and
the
insertion
into
it
,
of
the
ivory
heel
.
Ah
!
Stubb
,
thou
didst
not
know
Ahab
then
.
"
Am
I
a
cannon-ball
,
Stubb
,
"
said
Ahab
,
"
that
thou
wouldst
wad
me
that
fashion
?
But
go
thy
ways
;
I
had
forgot
.
Below
to
thy
nightly
grave
;
where
such
as
ye
sleep
between
shrouds
,
to
use
ye
to
the
filling
one
at
last
.
--
Down
,
dog
,
and
kennel
!
"
Starting
at
the
unforseen
concluding
exclamation
of
the
so
suddenly
scornful
old
man
,
Stubb
was
speechless
a
moment
;
then
said
excitedly
,
"
I
am
not
used
to
be
spoken
to
that
way
,
sir
;
I
do
but
less
than
half
like
it
,
sir
.
"
"
Avast
!
gritted
Ahab
between
his
set
teeth
,
and
violently
moving
away
,
as
if
to
avoid
some
passionate
temptation
.
"
No
,
sir
;
not
yet
,
"
said
Stubb
,
emboldened
,
"
I
will
not
tamely
be
called
a
dog
,
sir
.
"
"
Then
be
called
ten
times
a
donkey
,
and
a
mule
,
and
an
ass
,
and
begone
,
or
I
'll
clear
the
world
of
thee
!
"
