The captain cried out mockingly, "I see nothing but __________ and villians, the scum of the sea!"
The crew's first appearance was fierce enough, though almost grotesquely comical, the nine of them looking like so many beggars. Now they even looked even more ___________.
The only light came from the open door, just enough for me to see that the low ceiling was ______________ with dirty garments.
I had not seen his face so I'm not all certain he actually was there. His presence was only a ______________.
He stood there as alone as if he'd been _______________ upon a Pacific isle.
Without intending to, hadn't I done him a great wrong when I'd cut his face---___________ unintentionally--- with a whip?
Even at that moment all my thoughts were of finding some way to ______________ the captain and regain his favor.

The captain had the crew that much cowed.
The captain gazed at Morgan for a moment. Then he said, "Very well Mr. Morgan, then I do say it: this is an emergency. If these orders cause inconvenience, blame it on your darling Mr. Cranick. Or the impertinence of Mr. Zachariah. And if you still have so much pity on these fools, you can work the extra shift yourself."
