Nature's Magnanimity

1 passage in the novel carry this mark, in the order they appear.

How I snuffed that Tartar air!—how I spurned that turnpike earth!—that common highway all over dented with the marks of slavish heels and hoofs; and turned me to admire the magnanimity of the sea which will permit no records.

At the same foam-fountain, Queequeg seemed to drink and reel with me.

Chapter 13, Wheelbarrow · verse 9
