From the Lighthouse (fragments)

     These brief passages -- several little more than 
shards -- occur in various paragraphs late in the episode 
in which Babetina and Second Mate Quipple commandeer 
the smaller of the Monocle's two dinghies, lower away 
beneath a moonless sky and, after swaddling a pair  
of oarlocks with their bandanas so as to avoid rousing 
the dozing watch, row hard through choppy seas 
for the jetty...and freedom.

…-ster Chips, The Secret Sharer…

                ...Secheyaye, De Saussure...

                              …South Seas shells wash’d ashore…

                       …chivalrous...? That's for sure…

         …tres enchanté, mon cher-…

…she's elsewhere in the shire…

              …some sheets far short of sheer…

                       …for splashing, no one’s shyer…

                                 …silk shrouds...? How "Norma Shearer"…
