    The Tempest; somewhere betwixt:

    "Hang, cur! hang, you whoreson, insolent noisemaker!

    We are less afraid to be drowned than thou art!"

     

    and

     

    "If I did think, sir, I were well awake,

    I'ld strive to tell you. We were dead of sleep,

    And--how we know not--all clapp'd under hatches;

    Where but even now with strange and several noises

    Of roaring, shrieking, howling, jingling chains,

    And more diversity of sounds, all horrible,

    We were awaked; straightway, at liberty;

    Where we, in all her trim, freshly beheld

    Our royal, good and gallant ship, our master

    Capering to eye her: on a trice, so please you,

    Even in a dream, were we divided from them

    And were brought moping hither."

    It be bad without the propers at sea, not to mention the gout, jaundice, and general malaise.

    Bleach added to marginal water for survival in remote lands, Lads

    Ye can smell it on the yellowing skin, be bad tidings for the Mates.
