    “The night was thick and hazy
    When the “Piccadilly Daisy”
    Carried down the crew and captain in the sea;
    And I think the water downed ‘em;
    For they never, never found ‘em,
    And I know they didn’t come ashore with me.”
    —Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    “Capt. Gregg, if you insist on haunting me, you might at least be more agreeable about it.”
    —Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
