It’s a hard game Mary but they can’t catch me. I’m too cunning. There’s over a hundred of us now, working inland to the border from the coast. Here, come close, down here by my side, where I can talk to you.
[... …]
I’ve seen the ship break up beneath them, and the masts and yards snap like thread, and there they’ll be flung into the sea to swim for their lives. But when they reach the shore they’re dead men Mary. And they say nothing.
