That doctor 's a fool , I tell you . If I do n't have a drain o ' rum , Jim , I 'll have the horrors ; I seen some on 'em already . I seen old Flint in the corner there , behind you ; as plain as print , I seen him ; and if I get the horrors , I 'm a man that has lived rough , and I 'll raise Cain . Your doctor hisself said one glass would n't hurt me . I 'll give you a golden guinea for a noggin , Jim . '' He was growing more and more excited , and this alarmed me for my father , who was very low that day and needed quiet ; besides , I was reassured by the doctor 's words , now quoted to me , and rather offended by the offer of a bribe . `` I want none of your money , '' said I , `` but what you owe my father . I 'll get you one glass , and no more . '' When I brought it to him , he seized it greedily and drank it out . `` Aye , aye , '' said he , `` that 's some better , sure enough . And now , matey , did that doctor say how long I was to lie here in this old berth ? '' `` A week at least , '' said I. `` Thunder ! '' he cried . `` A week ! I ca n't do that ; they 'd have the black spot on me by then . The lubbers is going about to get the wind of me this blessed moment ; lubbers as could n't keep what they got , and want to nail what is another 's . Is that seamanly behaviour , now , I want to know ? But I 'm a saving soul . I never wasted good money of mine , nor lost it neither ; and I 'll trick 'em again . I 'm not afraid on 'em .
I 'll shake out another reef , XXXXX , and daddle 'em again . ''
