A dangerous sleep interrupted—A night in a snow-hut, and an unpleasant visitor—Snowed up.

"Now, then," cried Fred, as they drew up on a level portion of the ice-floe1, where the snow on its surface was so hard that the runners of the sledge2 scarce made an impression on it, "let us to work, lads, and get the tarpaulins4 spread. We shall have to sleep to-night under star-spangled bed-curtains."

"Troth," said O'Riley, gazing round towards the land, where the distant cliffs loomed5 black and heavy in the fading light, and out upon the floes and hummocks6, where the frost-smoke from pools of open water on the horizon circled round the pinnacles7 of the icebergs8—"troth, it's a cowld place intirely to go to wan9's bed in, but that fat-faced Exqueemaw seems to be settin' about it quite coolly; so here goes!"

"It would be difficult to set about it otherwise than coolly with the thermometer forty-five below zero," remarked Fred, beating his hands together, and stamping his feet, while the breath issued from his mouth like dense10 clouds of steam, and fringed the edges of his hood11 and the breast of his jumper with hoar-frost.

"It's quite purty, it is," remarked O'Riley, in reference to this wreath of hoar-frost, which covered the upper parts of each of them; "it's jist like the ermine that kings and queens wear, so I'm towld, and it's chaper a long way."

"I don't know that," said Joseph West. "It has cost us a rough voyage and a winter in the Arctic Regions, if it doesn't cost us more yet, to put that ermine fringe on our jumpers. I can make nothing of this knot; try what you can do with it, messmate, will you?"
