Retaliation

Retaliation The mate went ashore an afternoon, For the purpose to go to the bar and steal the cook’s girlfriend; the cook had to work till eight and when he finally came to the bar his girlfriend had gone with the mate to a hotel. How they mocked him next day, but the cook smiled showing even, wolfish teeth not his natural once mind, but nevertheless very white. It should have worried the crew, it’s no good to tease a man who can spit into their soup.
