We had not proceeded very far when we discovered thatinnumerable fish, albecore and bonito, seemed to be followingthe ship, many of them swimming so close to hersides that they almost touched her. As we were under sailalone and going very slowly, there was nothing to disturbthem except the occasional throwing of a grange (a three-prongedharpoon) by the men. The fish were so close together that it wasimpossible to miss and we had quantities of fresh fish for all handsfor ten or twelve days before they left us. The nights were dark andwe witnessed a singular phenomenon caused by these myriads of fishrushing through the phosphorescent water, causing the ocean to bestreaked, as though by flames, from horizon to horizon.
