Don Juan 03-020
Canto the Third

     XX
And there he went ashore without delay,
     Having no custom-house nor quarantine
To ask him awkward questions on the way
     About the time and place where he had been:
He left his ship to be hove down next day,
     With orders to the people to careen;
So that all hands were busy beyond measure,
In getting out goods, ballast, guns, and treasure.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)
