[ISHMAEL]
And then some time went by
Some days and nights elapsed

[DAGGOO, spoken]
Captain! A ship

[FEDALLAH, spoken]
Bad news. She brings bad news

[CAPTAIN GARDINER]
Halloa, Captain
We are the whale ship Rachel
Have ye seen a whaleboat adrift?

[AHAB, spoken]
Hast seen the white whale?

[CAPTAIN GARDINER]
Aye, yesterday
But have ye seen a whaleboat adrift?

[AHAB, spoken]
Yesterday! Yesterday! Faith, I know thee-- Captain Gardiner from Nantucket!

[CAPTAIN GARDINER, spoken]
'Tis I, Captain Ahab
