Splendid Weather. I never mind the sea myself. The rougher for me the better. Have a cigar?
Very Fine. One certainly does feel that only Englishmen can be sailors. Somehow or other they take naturally to the sea--now, don't they?
Fine. Yes. I always come by Folkestone. I never could see the use of the Castalia. We are not foreigners, you know. Most of us have our sea-legs. Eh?
Moderate. Yes. Perhaps a little brandy-and-water would be a good thing.

Very Rough. (Far too dreadful for description.)
