In Ezekiel Meggs' sitting-room, a bare, cheerless apartment giving an impression of extreme poverty, a very small fire is burning. At the back of the room, which is lighted by one candle, there is a glazed partition through which his shop can be seen. Meggs, a small, wizened man of about forty, is sitting at the table casting up figures in a ledger.

"Now is the season for a ship to run through the gurgling water,
Therefore wind up your soaked cables, O sailors, and weigh
Your hidden anchors from the harbours, and stretch the forestays to carry your well-woven sails." - Antipater of Sideon
