“There were nights when he took a deal more rum and water than his head could carry; and then he would sometimes sit and sing his wicked old wild sea-songs, minding nobody... Often I have heard the house shaking with Yo-ho-ho and a bottle and rum, all the neighbours joining in for dear life with the fear of death upon them and each singing louder than the other to avoid remark. Fiften men on the dead man's chest, Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum! Drink and the devil have done for the rest. Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!” MenSometimesDoneNightSongHouseWaterDealsHeardSeaDrinkSingingDevilDearWickedChestsBottlesRemarksFear Of DeathShakingNeighbourJoiningDead ManRumDear LifeJoining InWild Sea Author:Robert Louis Stevenson
