LEGEND oF THK NAVY, By ALFRED TKNHYsoA.
He that only ruIs by terror -
Doeth grievous wrO z.
Dep IS Z II I cnunt his error,
Let him hear my song
Brave he Captain was: the seamen
Made gallant crew,
Gallant sons Of En- slish freemeu,
Sailors bold and true.
But they hated his oppression, -
stern he Wss and rash;
Sc for eTers light transgrsssion
Doomed them 10 the lash.
Day by day more harsh aud cruel
Seemed the Captains mood,
Secret wrath, like smOlhsrsd fuei, ~
Burntin each man 'sbIOod -tf
Yet he hoped to purchase 6 .oryt
Hoped to mako the name at.t
OF his vessel great in story
Whsresoe'er he came.
So they paused By eApes and islands,
Many haEb1r- mouth,
Sailing under palmy highlands,
har within the nth.
On a day when they Wers going
Ger the vast ex panse,
In the North, h CANVASS flowing, srH
Rose . ship Of Francs
Then the Captains co or heightened,
Joyful cane bis speech; s. ~. ~ =
But a el y gladnsss hghtsned
In the eyes OF esch. - -a- ~ -
''Chsse," he cries; the ship few forward,
Bnd he wind did blow;
Stately, lightly, went 'he NorthWRrd;
TIL she neared the foe. .s-.s
When they looked at him they hAted,
BAD what they desired
Mute with folded arms they wHited-
Net gun Was fired.
But they heard the fOsman's thunder
Hoaring cut their doom; f.
All the air was torn in sunder,
Crashing went the boom,
spars ueIe splintered, decks were shattered,
BULL lttN fell Ike rain.
over mast and deck were scattered
Blood and brains Of men.
SpHrs were spintered; dc cks were broken,
Every mothers son
Down they dropt-no word was spoken
Zach beside his gun.
On the decks as they were lying,
With their faces GRIM
In their blood, as ibey lay dyinZs
Did they smile on him.
Those IN whom he had reliance
For his noble name,
With one smilsof still defaace
Sold him unto shame.
6hams and wrath his aart COMPOUNDED,
Pale he turned and red, ts
Till himself was deadly wcundid,
Falling on tbs dead.
Dismal error fearful slauehterl
Years have wandered by
Side by side beneath the water
Grew and captain ! e;
There the sun-iit ootan tosses
Dor them mOuderiug,
And the lonely ss6-bird crosses
With one wAft Of the wing.
