Who care to go and meet her so,
Come all to Fenner’s[19] dock!”
They came to Fenner’s dock;
And found, awaiting there,
Eight[19] yawls, that Brown[19] had lent the town,
In Captain Whipple’s[19] care.
The crews that mann’d the yawls
Had muffled[19] every oar;
And they, and men who join’d them then,[20]
All told, were sixty-four.[21]
