'Come
Captain
' cried the injured youth
'give my crime a name! What have I been and done? Have I stolen any of the property? have I set the house a-fire? If I have
why don't you give me in charge
and try it? But to take away the character of a lad that's been a good servant to you
because he can't afford to stand in his own light for your good
what a injury it is
and what a bad return for faithful service! This is the way young coves is spiled and drove wrong. I wonder at you
Captain
I do.'
All of which the Grinder howled forth in a lachrymose whine
and backing carefully towards the door.
'And so you've got another berth
have you
my lad?' said the Captain
eyeing him intently.
'Yes
Captain
since you put it in that shape
I have got another berth
' cried Rob
backing more and more; 'a better berth than I've got here
and one where I don't so much as want your good word
Captain
which is fort'nate for me
after all the dirt you've throw'd at me
because I'm poor
and can't afford to stand in my own light for your good. Yes
I have got another berth; and if it wasn't for leaving you unprovided
Captain
I'd go to it now
sooner than I'd take them names from you
because I'm poor
and can't afford to stand in my own light for your good. Why do you reproach me for being poor
and not standing in my own light for your good
Captain? How can you so demean yourself?'
'Look ye here
my boy
' replied the peaceful Captain. 'Don't you pay out no more of them words.'
'Well
then
don't you pay in no more of your words
Captain
' retorted the roused innocent
getting louder in his whine
and backing into the shop. 'I'd sooner you took my blood than my character.'
'Because
' pursued the Captain calmly
'you have heerd
may be
of such a thing as a rope's end.'
'Oh
have I though
Captain?' cried the taunting Grinder. 'No I haven't. I never heerd of any such a article!'
'Well
' said the Captain
'it's my belief as you'll know more about it pretty soon
if you don't keep a bright look-out. I can read your signals
my lad. You may go.'
