The Salcombe Seaman’s Flaunt to the Proud Pirate
A lofty ship from Salcombe came,
Blow high, blow low, and so sailed we;
She had golden trucks[42] that shone like flame,
On the bonny coasts of Barbary.
“Masthead, masthead,” the captains hail,
Blow high, blow low, and so sailed we;
“Look out and round, d’ye see a sail?”
