call me Ishmael some years ago. Never mind how long, Precisely having little or no money in my purse and nothing particular to interest me on shore. I thought I would say about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is where I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation. Whenever I found myself growing grim about the mouth whenever it is damp, drizzly November in my soul, whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street and methodically knocking people's hats off. Then I accounted high time. I get to the sea as soon as I can. This is my substitute for crystal ball. With a philosophical flourish, Catto throws himself upon his sword. I quietly take to the ship. There is nothing surprising in this. If they wouldn't have it. Almost all men in their degree sometime or other, cherished very nearly the same feelings towards the ocean with me. There now is your in sewer city of the Manhattans, belted round by wars as Indian aisles by coral reefs. Commerce surrounds it with her, sir, right and left the streets take you water word. It's extreme. Downtown is the battery where that noble mold is washed by waves and cooled by breezes, which a few hours previous were out of sight of land. Look at the crowd of water geysers there.
