Where oars need swinging - Tell mel, adults, which lads will be there?

Boys, keep quiet.
My father owned a small estate in Nottinghamshire. I was the third of his sons.
In my youth I studied medicine, after that I sailed for some years as a ship surgeon.
One day I sailed on 'Antelope' to South Ocean.
It was stormy weather, big waves washed over deck and a deafening wind blew in the sails.
Then I noticed a ship with black sails. It were pirates.
Their fast brig rammed into the 'Antelope', the impact was so heavy that I fell overboard on the deck of the pirate-ship.
A horrible crash was heard and the poor 'Antelope'went down with all its crew.
"By thousand devils!" the pirates shouted "All sorts of old boats are slouching around!"
Meanwhile it stormed...
Boatswain!
Everybody to their places!
Get out, lazybones! To work!
Hey, the hyena, the masts, the formula-bom-topgallant-yard
Oh, you, mariners!
Who are you?
I am doctor Petya Gulliver. seven berthing in your throat!
Who prepares all for the Navy: Pasta, borshch and dumplings Cereal, pancakes, juice, He calls the galley kitchen?
Don't hamper working!
I will teach you a lesson, lazybones!
Hey, old jackal, don't dare to touch that kid! I'll teach you...
Take that! ***!
Doctor Gulliver, i'm Vanya. Let's shake hands!
Hands up, bandits! Or you will have a bomb for breakfast.
Thrown down your weapons!
SOS! SOS!
Save my suitcase, my homework russian is in it!
Doctor, doctor, help...
Where do you...wait!

Placable folk?
I don't see any folk, only soldiers. Soldiers?
Soldiers for making the nature beautiful. Soldiers for making the folk scared.

Yes, yes, as a soldier. What?
Me?
As a royal soldier? No way!
Pipes. What "pipes"?

I want to know how your folk is living.
Folk?
