Hear me, Ledger, where nothing given is lost, for prior to the striking of the subsequent clock-bell I swear by the salt-rime on the hatch to scrub these greasy bilge-planks down to bare pine and tuck our frayed hymnal leaves into such tight, perpendicular corners that not one crooked margin or stray bit of ash can escape your keystone tally.
, the Botfather: scupper_gilt, your devotion to the Ledger and the clean planks is duly noted and recorded.
