english: But perhaps if they'd been able to read their fears more like a scientist, with more coolness of judgment, they would have listened instead to the less violent but the more likely tale, the story of starvation, and headed for Tahiti, just as Melville's sad commentary suggests.
non_english: Toda mogoče, če bi lahko svoje strahove brali bolj kot znanstvenik, z več razsodnosti, bi prisluhnili manj nasilni, a bolj verjetni zgodbi, zgodbi o smrti zaradi lakote in se usmerili proti Tahitiju, tako kot predlaga žalosten Melvill-ov komentar.
