    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)

    But—if you cannot give us ease—
    Last of the race of them who grieve
    Here leave us to die out with these
    Last of the people who believe!
    Silent, while years engrave the brow;
    Silent—the best are silent now.
