Sperm Whale Analogy

第三部 (Duodecimo), CHAPTER II. (Algerine Porpoise).—A pirate.
The Algerine Porpoise is described as a particularly savage creature, found only in the Pacific Ocean. It is somewhat larger than the Huzza Porpoise but shares a similar general build. Despite being a fierce fighter that will eagerly engage sharks, the narrator has attempted to lower bait for this creature many times without ever succeeding in capturing one.
