It was so in the Pequod with the little negro Pippin by nick-name, Pip by abbreviation. Betty Pippin, with young Roger her lover, fell both to the ground; where, oh perverse fate I showed him a corn that I had cut off with my own hand, from a maid of honour's toe; it was about the bigness of Kentish pippin, and grown so hard, that when I returned England, I got it hollowed into a cup, and set in silver. |
