“Did you fixedly gaze, too, upon that ribbed and dented brow;
there also, you would see still stranger footprints—the footprints
of his one unsleeping, ever-pacing thought! (p. 358-59).
Melville is first commenting on Ahab’s face, which he describes
as possessing a pensive and concerned look. Then, Melville uses the
metaphor of “footprints” to describe Ahab’s thoughts. Like
footprints, Ahab’s thoughts are many and scattered. The word
“unsleeping” informs the reader that Ahab cannot seem to turn off
or slow down his mind.
