And the salt sea it came in.

[11]

"Gae, fetch a web o' the silken claith,

"Another o' the twine,

"And wap them into our ship's side,

"And let na the sea come in."

They fetched a web o' the silken claith,

Another of the twine,

And they wapped them round that gude ship's side,

But still the sea came in.
