Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The King's Own and the Pirate, Vol. 2
All desperate hazards courage do create, As he plays frankly who has least estate.
Dryden. It were all one, That I should love a bright particular star, And think to wed it. Shakespeare.
Seymour was soon weary of the endless noise and con fusion to which he was subjected on board of the guard Ship, and he wrote to Captain M requesting that he might be permitted to join some vessel on active service, until the period should arrive when the former would be enabled to resume the command of his ship. The answer from his patron informed him, that the time of his renewal of his professional duties would be uncertain, not having hitherto derived much benefit from his return to England.
