Thirst, An Ocean Incident on a Dead Calm Voyage
The narrator recalls a perilous voyage in a nearly waterless brig under extreme heat. With scant provisions and grog driving the crew, they drift for twenty days in glassy seas, enduring rotting hull noise, cockroaches, and scarce water. On the twentieth day a distant sail appears, possibly an American brig, prompting hope of relief.
