About this audiobook
Excerpt: ""At last!" murmured Eveleen Ambrose with heartfelt relief, gaining the unsteady deck by dint of a frantic clutch at her husband's arm, and cannoning helplessly against an unfortunate man who happened to be standing near the head of the ladder. "Oh, I beg your pardon!" as he staggered wildly and recovered himself, with a look of mortal offence on his face; "I am so sorry—I——". "Steady!" said her husband sharply, retrieving her from an unintentional rush across the deck, and setting her up in a corner. "What's the matter with you—eh?". "The matter?" Eveleen's Irish mind was so unhappily constituted that it saw humour where none was visible to others. She began to laugh weakly. "The matter? Oh, nothing at all, of course!" "Hysterics now, I suppose." Richard Ambrose's voice was rough."I am never hysterical!" indignantly. "But after four days and nights of being tossed about like a cork in that cabin down there, till I know the feel of every inch of the floor and ceiling of it—and hard enough they are, I can tell you!—mayn't I have your gracious leave to be just a little weeshy bit shaky?""
