“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.”

And list to the love of these,
She a window flower,
And he a winter breeze.”

To whirl in tall buildings.
Allow them many ships at sea,
And on land, soldiers
And policemen.”

For so appears this fleet majestical.”
