And some from the deck to deep they were roll’d,
But the shrieks and the cries met the ears of that female,
Grace Darling—that gallant young woman so bold.
In the dead of the night this undaunted young female,
Oh! father, dear father, awake she did cry,
Arouse from your slumber and launch the boat quickly,
Poor creatures to save, our efforts let’s try,
I fear there’s a wreck, let us strive then to rescue
Some part of the crew from the deep sad and cold,
Their shrieks do appal me, their cries she said pierce me,
