📚 Summary:
As the Pharaon approaches port, Edmond Dantès expertly commands the crew to prepare the ship for anchoring. M. Morrel, the ship’s owner, climbs aboard and speaks with Danglars, the supercargo, who informs him of Captain Leclère’s death while praising the late captain’s service. Meanwhile, Dantès remains focused on his duties, showcasing his leadership and popularity among the crew in contrast to Danglars' unlikable nature.
✨ What Happens:
- Dantès commands the crew to lower the sails and ready the ship for anchoring with precision.
- M. Morrel boards the ship and converses with Danglars, who reports Captain Leclère’s death.
- Danglars, disliked for his arrogance, praises Captain Leclère while subtly contrasting himself with Dantès.
- Dantès continues to display his leadership, earning the respect of the crew.
💡 Thoughts & Reflections:
- Dantès vs. Danglars: The text paints a stark contrast—Dantès is admired, while Danglars is insufferable.
- M. Morrel’s Priorities: Morrel’s focus on the cargo might feel singular-minded, but at least he asks about Leclère’s well-being. Is it genuine concern or just business-minded worry about his bottom line?
📖 Tidbits:
- Sailor Commands: Terms like “brail up the spanker” and “clue up” reflect Dantès’ expertise in managing the ship’s sails and crew.
- Supercargo’s Role: Danglars’ position highlights the commercial and hierarchical dynamics aboard the Pharaon.
