Page 146

This small page frames a familiar sailor's saying as something that still fails to fully settle in consciousness.

The title matters because it undercuts the proverb that follows. The weather wisdom is ordinary and well known, but by calling it 'Never Sinks In,' the page turns common knowledge into a statement about resistance, denial, or the stubborn failure of warnings to become action.

Under the title 'Never Sinks In', the familiar proverb 'Red sky at night / Sailors delight' is quoted only to be undercut: the title insists this common warning never becomes action or belief. This reading remains provisional because the page transcript is partial/OCR-uncertain.
