Chapter 98: Moby Dick

"and, foolish as i am, taught thee, a green simple boy, how to splice a rope"
In this chapter Ishmael makes whaling sound repetiative and almost boring. However when the crew mates hear, "there she blows" it is like all of it has become worth it a thousand times again. So much that anybody even a green simple boy can become addicted to whaling just by the littlest taste.
