"Well, if I hadn't, you'd have found the way in yonder, and I wasn't going to let you if I could help it." "Ah, you'll be hung, sir." "Get out!" cried Ram.

"Your skipper wouldn't hang a boy like me.

"I don't know; why ?" replied Archy.
"Because she'll have to come and take us off.

This rope's long enough, and we shall have to slide down into a boat." But the cutter was long.

For the lugger had escaped to Holland consequent upon the _White Hawk_ being so short-handed, and it was toward evening that she came close in to search for the crews, and all the party descended in safety to the boat, which rowed under in answer to the signals made by firing pistols.
As to the boats that passed under the archway, they were prisoned till the next low water.
