Im Krähennest oder irgendwo in den Wanten, an einem unbestimmten Punkt an die dreißig Meter über ihr, hörte Bellis jemanden singen. Mundmusik, ganz anders als die vulgären Shanties, die sie in Tarmuth gehört hatte, elegisch und komplex.
From the crow’s nest, or from somewhere in the rigging, from some indistinct spot a hundred feet or more above her, Bellis heard a strain of mouth-music. It was not like the imbecilic shanties she had heard in Tarmuth. It was slow and complex.
