And since the ship was short of lime-Juice, and since the practice was sound even if the ship had been swimming in anti-scorbutics, Stephen insisted upon the cabbage's being mixed with dinner every day: as to its alleged laxative properties, he had not perceived any inconvenience; and if they had an existence outside a hypochondriacal high-fed cosseted fancy, it was all to the good.
Pero no tenían mucho zumo de lima y, además, aunque nadaran en medicinas para combatir el escorbuto, el remedio era bueno, así que Stephen había insistido en que las coles formaran parte de la comida todos los días. En cuanto a sus supuestas propiedades laxantes, si existían realmente y no eran producto de la hipocondría, a Stephen no le parecían perjudiciales.
