Close to our bows, strange forms in the water darted hither and thither before us; while thick in our rear flew the inscrutable sea-ravens. And every morning, perched on our stays, rows of these birds were seen; and spite of our hootings, for a long time obstinately clung to the hemp, as though they deemed our ship some drifting, uninhabited craft; a thing appointed to desolation, and therefore fit roosting-place for their homeless selves. And heaved and heaved, still unrestingly heaved the black sea, as if its vast tides were a conscience; and the great mundane soul were in anguish and remorse for the long sin and suffering it had bred.
Hello, I am Notthedarkweb! I am a proud Mumbaikar and Indian of Bengali origin, who is interested in a vast variety of topics, but especially articles about pop culture, Indian geography and cinema. Since big edits are not my cup of tea, I try to help the community of Wikipedia editors with small corrections and clean-ups, with the occasional major edit when I find something especially outrageous!
I am currently a student at the University of Toronto - St. George Campus.
