“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.”

By the same laws which first herself ordained.”

Ten leagues beyond the wide world’s end:
Methinks it is no journey.”
