"'You got the sounding-rod in here, Marlow? I can't
get the pumps to suck. By God! it's no child's play.'

trying to think of various things--but I thought only

handiwork, which had withstood so long the malice of
the sea. And we pumped. And there was no break in
the weather. The sea was white like a sheet of foam,

the clouds, no--not the size of a man's hand--no, not
for so much as ten seconds. There was for us no sky,
there were for us no stars, no sun, no universe--nothing
but angry clouds and an infuriated sea.
