And, as for Captain Ahab, no sign of him was yet to be seen; only, they said he was in the cabin.
法勒和比勒达从船长室里走了出来，法勒对大副说：
But then, the idea was, that his presence was by no means necessary in getting the ship under weigh, and steering her well out to sea.
怎么样了，斯达巴克，亚哈船长刚才说不需要什么东西了，你把大家集合起来吧！ 好啦，斯达巴克，执行使命吧！ 比勒达帮着腔。
Indeed, as that was not at all his proper business, but the pilot's; and as he was not yet completely recovered—so they said—therefore, Captain Ahab stayed below.

在船长室里和自己的亲人做着告别的交谈，直到亲人们坐上小艇和领港人一齐离开大船为止。
Aft here, ye sons of bachelors, he cried, as the sailors lingered at the main-mast. Mr. Starbuck, drive'em aft.
嗨，斯达巴克先生，让他们到船梢儿来，这些狗娘养的！
