    Summary

    Queequeg passes among them, untouched. Now and then, a silvery school of fish darts out of his way. Slowly comes the understanding: he must be changed. The water rushing over his gills is as fresh and life-giving as air. To move, he need only twitch his tail. To eat, open his yawning mouth.

    After the Pequod sinks, Queequeg goes on.

    Summary

    He came honestly, by some series of hints and implications half-understood, to believe that the relations between his oarsman and his harpooneer were apart from the whalemens’ bond of brothers-in-arms, or in-boat as the case may be; and for separate reasons shortly to be expiated, he came to believe that for once it would not do to let the matter stand in silence.

    Summary

    Fifth-glyph lipogram of "Moby-Dick", with additional isomorphic constraints, to wit: any and all paragraphs match a plain .txt of this work in total words, total chars and total blankspacings. Original longish lipogrammatic subspans in bold.

    It's about whaling, nominally.

    From small fish, big fish grow.
