PEW。 Cap'n�察�the rights of it is this。 Me and that young man
there was partaking in a friendly drop of rum at the ADMIRAL
BENBOW inn�察�and I'd just proposed his blessed Majesty�察�when the
young man he ups and says to me�此 �'Pew��' he says�察�'I like you��
Pew�此 �you're a true seaman��' he says�察�'and I'm one as sticks at
nothing�察�and damme�察�Pew��' he says�察�'I'll make your fortune。'
��Can he deny as them was his words�拭 �Look at him�察�you as has
eyes�此 �no�察�he cannot。 'Come along of me��' he says�察�'and damme��
I'll make your fortune。'�А �Well�察�Cap'n�察�he lights a dark lantern
��which you'll find it somewhere on the floor�察�I reckon���察�and out
we goes�察�me follerin' his lead�察�as I thought was 'art´of´oak and
a true´blue mariner�察�and the next I knows is�察�here we was in
here�察�and him a´askin' me to 'old the glim�察�while he prised the
lid off of your old sea´chest with his cutlass。
GAUNT。 The chest�拭 。�HE LEAPS�察�R。�察�AND EXAMINES CHEST。�� Ah��
PEW。 Leastways�察�I was to 'elp him�察�by his account of it�察�while
he nailed the rhino�察�and then took and carried off that lovely
maid of yours�察�for a lovely maid she is�察�and one as touched old
Pew's 'art Cap'n�察�when I 'eard that�察�my blood biled。 'Young
man��' I says�察�'you don't know David Pew��' I says�察�and with that I
ups and does my dooty by him�察�cutlass and all�察�like a lion´'arted
seaman�察�though blind。 ��And then in comes you�察�and I gives him
up�此 �as you know for a fack is true�察�and I'll subscribe at the
Assizes。 And that�察�if you was to cut me into junks�察�is the
truth�察�the 'ole truth�察�and nothing but the truth�察�world without
end�察�so help me�察�amen�察�and if you'll 'and me over the 'oly Bible��

ARETHUSA。 Well�察�and why do we wait�拭 �We know Kit�察�do we not��
KIT。 Ay�察�Captain�察�you know the pair of us�察�and you can see his
face and mine。��
GAUNT。 Christopher�察�the facts are all against you。 I find you
here in my house at midnight�此 �you who at least had eyes to see�察�
and must have known whither you were going。 It was this man�察�not
you�察�who called me up�此 �and when I came in�察�it was he who was
uppermost and who gave you up to justice。 This unsheathed
cutlass is yours�察�there hangs the scabbard�察�empty�察�and as for the
dark lantern�察�of what use is light to the blind�拭�and who could
have trimmed and lighted it but you��
PEW。 Ah�察�Cap'n�察�what a 'ed for argyment��
KIT。 And now�察�sir�察�now that you have spoken�察�I claim the liberty
to speak on my side。
GAUNT。 Not so。 I will first have done with this man。 David
Pew�察�it were too simple to believe your story as you tell it�察�but
I can find no testimony against you。 From whatever reason��
assuredly you have done me service。 Here are five guineas to set
you on your way。 Begone at once�察�and while it is yet time�察�think
upon your repentance。
PEW。 Cap'n�察�here's my respecks。 You've turned a pious man��
Cap'n�察�it does my 'art good to 'ear you。 But you ain't the only
one。 O no� �I came about and paid off on the other tack before
you�察�I reckon�此 �you ask the Chaplain of the Fleet else�察�as called
me on the quarter´deck before old Admiral 'Awke himself ��TOUCHING
HIS HAT���察�my old commander。 ��'David Pew��' he says��
'five´and´thirty year have I been in this trade�察�man and boy��'
that chaplain says�察�'and damme�察�Pew��' says he�察�'if ever I seen
the seaman that could rattle off his catechism within fifty mile
of you。 Here's five guineas out of my own pocket��' he says�察�'and
what's more to the pint��' he says�察�'I'll speak to my reverend
brother´in´law�察�the Bishop of Dover��' he says�察�'and if ever you
leave the sea�察�and wants a place as beadle�察�why damme��' says he��
'you go to him�察�for you're the man for him�察�and him for you。'
GAUNT。 David Pew�察�you never set your foot on a King's ship in
all your life。 There lies the road。
PEW。 Ah�察�you was always a 'ard man�察�Cap'n�察�and a 'ard man to
believe�察�like Didymus the 'Ebrew prophet。 But it's time for me
to go�察�and I'll be going。 My service to you�察�Cap'n�此 �and I kiss
my 'and to that lovely female。
'Time for us to go�察�

KIT。 Well�察�sir�察�and now��
GAUNT。 I find you here in my house at this untimely and unseemly
hour�察�I find you there in company with one who�察�to my assured
knowledge�察�should long since have swung in the wind at Execution
Dock。 What brought you�拭 �Why did you open my door while I slept
to such a companion�拭 �Christopher French�察�I have two treasures。
One ��LAYING HIS HAND ON ARETHUSA'S SHOULDER�� I know you covet。
Christopher�察�is this your love��
KIT。 Sir�察�I have been fooled and trapped。 That man declared he
knew you�察�declared he could make you change your mind about our
marriage。 I was drunk�察�sir�察�and I believed him�此 �heaven knows I
am sober now�察�and can see my folly�察�but I believed him then�察�and
followed him。 He brought me here�察�he told me your chest was full
of gold that would make men of us for life。 At that I saw my
fault�察�sir�察�and drew my cutlass�察�and he�察�in the wink of an eye�察�
roared out for help�察�leaped at my throat like a weasel and had me
rolling on the floor。 He was quick�察�and I�察�as I tell you�察�sir��
was off my balance。
GAUNT。 Is this man�察�Pew�察�your enemy��
KIT。 No sir�察�I never saw him till to´night。
GAUNT。 Then�察�if you must stand the justice of your country�察�come
to the proof with a better plea。 What�拭�lantern and cutlass
yours�察�you the one that knew the house�察�you the one that saw�察�you
the one overtaken and denounced�察�and you spin me a galley yarn
like that�拭 �If that is all your defence�察�you'll hang�察�sir�察�hang。
ARETHUSA。 Ah� �Father�察�I give him up�此 �I will never see him��
never speak to him�察�never think of him again�察�I take him from my
heart�察�I give myself wholly up to you and to my mother�察�I will
obey you in every point ´ O�察�not at a word merely ´ at a finger
raised� �I will do all this�察�I will do anything ´ anything you
bid me�察�I swear it in the face of heaven。 Only ´ Kit� �I love
him�察�father�察�I love him。 Let him go。
��GAUNT。 Go��
ARETHUSA。 You let the other。 Open the door again ´ for my sake��
father ´ in my mother's name ´ O�察�open the door and let him go。��
KIT。 Let me go�拭 �My girl�察�if you had cast me out is morning��
good and well�此 �I would have left you�察�though it broke my heart。
But it's a changed story now�察�now I'm down on my luck�察�and you
come and stab me from behind。 I ask no favour�察�and I'll take
none�察�I stand here on my innocence�察�and God helping me I'll clear
my good name�察�and get your love again�察�if it's love worth having。
��Now�察�Captain Gaunt�察�I've said my say�察�and you may do your
pleasure。 I am my father's son�察�and I never feared to face the
truth。
GAUNT。 You have spoken like a man�察�French�察�and you may go。 I
leave you free。
KIT。 Nay�察�sir�察�not so�此 �not with my will。 I'm accused and
counted guilty�察�the proofs are against me�察�the girl I love has
turned upon me。 I'll accept no mercy at your hands。�А �Captain
Gaunt�察�I am your prisoner。
ARETHUSA。 Kit�察�dear Kit ´
GAUNT。 Silence� �Young man�察�I have offered you liberty without
bond or condition。 You refuse。 You shall be judged。 Meanwhile

cutlass。 The night brings counsel�此 �to´morrow shall decide。 ��HE
