The Lass that Loves a Sailor.

The moon on the ocean was dimmed by a ripple,

Affording a checkered light.

The gay jolly tars passed the word for a tipple,

And the toast,—for ’twas Saturday night.

He loved as his life,

Each drank, and he wished he could hail her;

But the standing toast,

That pleased the most,
