Patrick O'Brian Quotes

The Nymphs In Green? Delightful Girls.' 'It Is Clear You Have Been A Great While At Sea, To Call Those Sandy-haired Coarse-featured Pimply Short-necked Thick-fingered Vulgar-minded Lubricious Blockheads By Such A Name. Nymphs, Forsooth. If They Were Nymphs, They Must Have Had Their Being In A Tolerably Rank And Stagnant Pool: The Wench On My Left Had An Ill Breath, And Turning For Relief I Found Her Sister Had A Worse; And The Upper Garment Of Neither Was Free From Reproach. Worse Lay Below, I Make No Doubt.
