And opened every corner of the world up to her trade?
For the sake, then, of the story
Of old England’s naval glory,
You surely now some justice to our sailors ought to show,
And let British brain and sinew
Still on British ships continue,
Nor let a furrin lingo drown the British “Yo, heave ho!”
Truth, April 15, 1886.
