Summary
'I could wish you did not have this dinner,' said Stephen.'But you will go easy with the wine, will you not?''If you see me offer to take even half a glass too much, pray give me a kick.'This would not have been difficult, since the invariable practice at these often-repeated ceremonies, was to seat Dr. Maturin between Captain Aubrey and the most important guest, so that Jack's unwavering ignorance of any foreign language (other than a very, very little French) might be less of a hindrance.- Blue at the Mizzen, Patrick O'Brian
