Here leviathan, Hugest of living creatures, on the deep Stretch'd like a promontory, sleeps or swims, And seems a moving land; and at his gills Dram in, and at his trunk spouts out, a sea. Milton, There she blows ?The Boats start in pursuit?Capturing of a Whale?The process of Cutting-in?A flock of Alba- trosses?Other Sea-birds?Trjing-out?The Whaleman's delightr?Magnitude of the Whale. FOE the first time in our ten weeksi passage from the Hawaiian Islands, on this New Zealand Cruising Ground, we now heard that life - kindling sound to a weary whaleman, There She Blows The usual questions and orders from the deck quickly followed. Where away? Two points on the weather bow How far off? A mile and a half Keep your eye on her Sing out when we head right It turned out that three whales were descried from aloft in differentparts, and in a short time, when we were deemed near enough, the captain gave orders to Stand by and lower for one a little more than half a mile to windward. Three boats' crews pulled merrily away, glad of something to stir their blood, and with eager hope to obtain the oily material wherewith to fill their ship and make good their lay. The whale was going leisurely to windward, blowing every now and again two or three times, then turning tail, up flukes, and sinking. The boats headed'' after him, keeping a distance of nearly one quarter of a mile from each other, to scatter (as it is called) their chances. Fortunately, as the oarsmen were hove up, that is, had their oars a-peak, about the place where they expected the whale would next appear, the huge creature rose hard by the captain's boat, and all the harpooner in the bow had to do was to plunge his t...

Download or read book The Whale and His Captors or The Whaleman s Adventures written by Henry T. Cheever and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Whale and His Captors is an important firsthand account of the golden age of American whaling, chronicling both its lore and science as practiced from the inception of the fishery to the mid-1800s. Late in the composition of Moby-Dick, Herman Melville found inspiration in Cheever and his writings that would provide the final flourishes for one of America's classic novels. After exhausting other whaling sources - Beale, Scoresby, Bennett, and Browne - Melville turned to Cheever for chapter titles and organization as well as passages that helped shape, define, and elucidate his great work. This is the first scholarly edition of The Whale and His Captors, accompanied by an introduction and apparatus that clearly elucidates Cheever's treatise on whaling and demonstrates how his writings contributed both to the course of American literature and to our burgeoning understanding of literature's engagement with the natural world.
