And this night they will both weep for me.’

Then up spoke a seaman of our gallant ship,

And a well-spoken man was he;

‘For want of a long-boat we shall all be drowned,

And shall sink to the bottom of the sea.’

5

Then three times round went that gallant ship,

And down like a stone sank she;

The moon shone bright, and the stars gave their light,
