    Chapter 99 - The Doubloon

    "Book! you lie there; the fact is, you books must know your places." A bunch of astrology bitches sit around trying to make sense of a doubloon Ahab keeps. It could also be sold for cigars.

    Chapter 98 - Stowing Down and Clearing Up

    "I sailed with thee along the Peruvian coast last voyage—and, foolish as I am, taught thee, a green simple boy, how to splice a rope!" We like a tidy ship and then we goon on each other.

    Chapter 97 - The Lamp

    "Had you descended from the Pequod's try-works to the Pequod's forecastle, where the off duty watch were sleeping, for one single moment you would have almost thought you were standing in some illuminated shrine of canonized kings and counsellors. There they lay in their triangular oaken vaults, each mariner a chiselled muteness; a score of lamps flashing upon his hooded eyes." We sleep in the dark.

    Chapter 96 - The Try-Works

    "Look not too long in the face of the fire, O man! Never dream with thy hand on the helm! Turn not thy back to the compass; accept the first hint of the hitching tiller; believe not the artificial fire, when its redness makes all things look ghastly." We learn of the fire and the pots that burn whale blubber and how they open up a gate to hell and madness.

    Chapter 95 - The Cassock

    "Immemorial to all his order, this investiture alone will adequately protect him, while employed in the peculiar functions of his office." The clothes of the butcher of whale blubber. A clergyman of and by the sailors.

    Chapter 94 - A Squeeze of the Hand

    "In thoughts of the visions of the night, I saw long rows of angels in paradise, each with his hands in a jar of spermaceti." Squeezing sperm oil, detailing parts of the whale. Stop laughing you pervert.

    Chapter 93 - The Castaway

    "He saw God's foot upon the treadle of the loom, and spoke it; and therefore his shipmates called him mad." Pip falls overboard, is rescued, but sees god underwater, and goes mad.

    Chapter 92 - Ambergris

    "I say, that the motion of a Sperm Whale's flukes above water dispenses a perfume, as when a musk-scented lady rustles her dress in a warm parlor." Stop saying Whalers (and Whales) are smelly. Also, where do you think this stuff comes from? Someone has to dig it out of a dead whale carcass.
