ward, for days and days, and always it had 
been growing warmer. But just at that 
moment he noticed the sailors acting very 
strangely on deck. They seemed to be doing 
things to the new men and at last one of them 
looked out at the open sea and shouted, “See! 
There it is! There it is! The Equator! The 
Equator!”
