But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away. You are cheating, the captain said to the sailor. The fires warming you. But its half a mile away! said the sailor. A fires fire, answered the captain. I have won.
