Captain Ahab, Captain Peleg, and Captain Ahab Boy

Captain peeleg asked where captain ahab was to be found, and what dost thou want of captain ahab? It's all right enough. Thou art shipped, yes. But i should like to see him, but i don't think thou wilt be able to at present. I don't know exactly what's the matter with him, but he keeps close inside the house, a sort of sick and yet he don't look so. In fact, he ain't sick, but no, he isn't well either. Anyhow, young man, he won't always see me, so i don't suppose he'll see thee. He's a queer man, captain ahab
