’ ’ “ Shakespeare s sailor, Sebastian s bawling, blasphemous, ” incharitable dog, is much such another. His lack of charity places him alongside the shipman, as it would place him alongside many sailors of the present day .

its a nd of sea life, dangers, wonders, delights ; or ballads or B of tragical disaster, of poetical justice such as rown ’ R s C C G M obyn onfession or aptain len . any of them, and some of these are among the best, are love ballads,

With cleaving prows in order brave, To a speeding wind and a bounding wave A gallant armament Each bark built out of a forest - tree f Le t leafy and rough as first it grew, v And nailed all o er the gaping sides,

Seethed in fat and suppled in flame, ’ To bear the playful billow s game :

So each good ship was rude to see, R V ude and bare to the outward iew, But each upbore a stately tent ; Where cedar pales in scented row Kept out the flakes of the dancing brine

As gently as a rising mist .

They felt the water float their hair.

She sank and sank by yard and mast, Sank down the shimmering gradual dark ; A little drooping pennon last

Showed like the black fin of a shark .

She rested safely balanced true,

With all her upward gazing band , The piper and the dreaming crew .

And there, unmarked of any chart,

In unrecorded deeps they lie, Empea rl ed Within the purple heart

Of the great sea for aye and aye .

Their eyes are ruby in the green f sun Long sha t of that spreads and rays, And upward with a wizard sheen

TH E LAST B UCCANE E R

TH E w w winds were yelling, the aves were s elling, The sky was black and drear, When the crew with eyes of flame brought the ship wi thout a name B Alongside the last uccaneer.

r Whence flies your sloop full sail before so fie ce a gale, When all others drive bare on the seas ? r Say, come ye from the shore of the holy Salvado , Or the gulf of the rich Caribbees ? “ From a shore no search hath found, from a gulf no line

can sound , Without rudder or needle we steer ; — Above , below our bark dies the sea fowl and the shark,

A s w efly by the last Buccaneer.

C H AN TI E S

A CHANTY is a song sung by sailors w hen engaged in the v Thew se erest of their many labours . ord chanty is gener ally mispronounced by landsmen . It is not pronounced w a fiha l as spelt, like the word chant ith an dded y . It is ew ch o pronounced shanty, to rhym ith scanty, the s ft a The n is and the narrow . verb to cha ty frequently used , C as in the order hanty it up, now, or the injunction

Heave and chanty . T i here are three varieties of chanty, each k nd adapted T to its special labour. here is the capstan chanty, sung a or at the capstan when warping, or weighing nchor, T hoisting topsails with the watch . here is the halliard

- chanty, sung at the topsail and top gallant halliards, when

- - the topsails and top gallant sails are being mast headed .

And there is the sheet, tack, and bowline chanty, used a re aft when the fore, main, and crossjack sheets hauled , and w hen the tacks are boarded and the bowlines tautened . w Formerly, in the days when ships were built of ood, and leaked from an inch or two to two or three feet a day, there used to be pumping chanties, sung by the pumpers a s they hove the brakes round . Now that ships are built or of steel or iron, which either leak not at all go to the is bottom, there no pumping to be done aboard, save the pumping of fresh w ater from the tanks in the hold for w the use of the cre , and the daily pumping of salt water s for the washing down of the decks . I have pas ed many miserable hours pumping out the leaks from a w ooden so r ship, but I was never fortunate as to hea a pumping chanty. n is r c an Strictly speaki g, there a fourth va iety of h ty, 300 fa vo ri runawa the mind.
