“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.”

If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmastered importunity.”
