My little sister's remark
about a certain captain...

:19:11
I think I should tell you that
two years ago I fell in love

:19:14
with a New Bedford man
who came here on a visit.

:19:17
However, we've not
corresponded since that time.

:19:20
I'm now quite free.
:19:24
He was a whaler, a strong man,
somewhat rough in his ways.

:19:30
Yet also gentle.
:19:33
And very handsome.
:19:41
Miss Bromley...
:19:44
You will find someone else.
:19:47
When that happens, I pray he'll be
the strongest, gentlest man on Earth.

:19:57
And the handsomest, too.
:20:04
I'll be going home tomorrow.
:20:10
I cannot think it right
for a young woman of your breeding

:20:14
to travel across 18,000 miles
of stormy seas to a savage land...

:20:20
I know all about Hawaii.
Prince Keoki lectured at our church.

:20:24
It is horrible.
:20:25
My life will be one of work,
poverty, bad food...

:20:31
living in a grass hut
surrounded by filth and savages.

:20:42
Why do you try to make Hawaii
seem even worse than it is?

:20:45
Because I will not spoil your life,
Miss Bromley.

:20:50
You are so beautiful,
and I am of such little consequence,

:20:55
that I put the idea of marriage
completely out of mind

:20:58
the moment I saw you.
