“He’s headed north
” the old man said
The current will have set us far to the eastward
he thought
I wish he would turn with the current
That would show that he was tiring
When the sun had risen further the old man realized that the fish was not tiring
There was only one favorable sign
The slant of the line showed he was swimming at a lesser depth
That did not necessarily mean that he would jump
But he might
“God let him jump
” the old man said
“I have enough line to handle him
”
Maybe if I can increase the tension just a little it will hurt him and he will jump
he ’ll fill the sacks along his backbone with air and then he cannot go deep to die
He tried to increase the tension
but the line had been taut up to the very edge of the breaking point since he had hooked the fish and he felt the harshness as he leaned back to pull and knew he could put no more strain on it
I must not jerk it ever
he thought
Each jerk widens the cut the hook makes and then when he does jump he might throw it
Anyway I feel better with the sun and for once I do not have to look into it
There was yellow weed on the line but the old man knew that only made an added drag and he was pleased
It was the yellow Gulf weed that had made so much phosphorescence in the night
“Fish
” he said
“I love you and respect you very much
But I will kill you dead before this day ends
”
Let us hope so
he thought
A small bird came toward the skiff from the north
He was a warbler and flying very low over the water
The old man could see that he was very tired
The bird made the stern of the boat and rested there
Then he flew around the old man’s head and rested on the line where he was more comfortable
“How old are you
” the old man asked the bird
“Is this your first trip
”
The bird looked at him when he spoke
He was too tired even to examine the line and he teetered on it as his delicate feet gripped it fast
