When My Turn Comes.

When my turn comes, dear shipmates all,
On, do not weep for me;
Wrap me up in my hammock tight
And put me into the sea;
For it's good weeping
When a shipmates sleeping,
And the long watch keeping
At the bottom Of the sea.
But think of sometimes and say:
He did his duty right
And stroye the best he knew to please
His captain in the fight"
But it S NO good weeping
When a shipmates sleeping.
And the long watch keeping
Through the long, long night.
An6 let my epitaph be these words:
Cleared from this port, alone,
A craft. that was stanch,. and sound, and true
Destination unknown
And it's no good weeping
When a shpmate's sleeping
And the long watch keeping
All alone all alone.
And mark this well. my shipmates dear,
Alone the long night through,
Up there in the darkness behind the stars
FL look out sharp for you
so it's no good weeping
When a Shipmates sleeping
And the long watch keeping
All the long night through

My arms are empty, and my eyes.
That cannot see her little face,
Look or the world in dull surprise
To find it such dreary place.
What wonder that her rosy feet
Turned from the earthly path they trod,
Faltered, and found the starry street,
The rainbow way that leads to God?
With smiling lips she tried to frame
4 word of parting or of prayer;
They only dimpled to my name,
And smiled again, and rested there.
Within the hollow of my breast,
Where once my heart beat fervently,
A chapel I have reared and blest
And there enshrned her memory.
Only white thoughts may enter here,
To scatter incense sweet and faint,
Kneel with the priest who worships near,
Or serve the altar. of my saint.
Love is the priest, and night and day,
With folded " ings and dropping head,
He kneels before the shrine to pray,
And whisper masses for the dead.
