TREASURE ISLAND 031 – XXIIIThe Ebb-tide Runs – 006
It was at first mere instinct, but once I had it in my hands and found it fast, curiosity began to get the upper hand, and I determined I should have one look through the cabin window.I pulled in hand over hand on the cord, and when I judged myself near enough, rose at infinite risk to about half my height and thus commanded the roof and a slice of the interior of the cabin.By this time the schooner and her little consort were gliding pretty swiftly through the water; indeed, we had already fetched up level with the camp-fire.The ship was talking, as sailors say, loudly, treading the innumerable ripples with an incessant weltering splash; and until I got my eye above the window-sill I could not comprehend why the watchmen had taken no alarm.One glance, however, was sufficient; and it was only one glance that I durst take from that unsteady skiff.It showed me Hands and his companion locked together in deadly wrestle, each with a hand upon the other’s throat.I dropped upon the thwart again, none too soon, for I was near overboard.
