“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)

—Janet Frame (b. 1924)

From Havre to Hartford, Master Soleil,
Bringing the lights of Norway and all that.”
