So, with benefit of disguise and a somewhat changed personality, ha manages to become a steward on the very' ship that is to carry bis wife on hex' quest for diversion. The man has the dubious satisfaction of seeing his wife pursued by mil manner of men, and of learning that she is not completely averse to the chase herself. There ar a number of times when he would like to call the whole thing off, but finds that midocean is a bad place to do rnat.
