Superior wholly to flurry or fear
In the tryingest moment of peril.
With a Skipper so stout and a Mate so astute,
Sing hey, sing ho, and an even keel!
The course of that yacht can't be hard to compute,
Ho! the sky shines fair in the offing!
Salisbury dauntless, and Smith debonair,
And Goschen a Nautical Ajax who'll dare
All the lightnings on hand—at least so he'll declare!—
How finely with such a fine crew they should fare,
