“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)

“You were sent to get food, not treasure. You can’t eat pieces of eight.... You place an absurd value on the cheapest of human commodities.”
