Eliot, Samuel, 1821-1898 · Boston : [J. Wilson & Son, University Press] · leaf 136
tle shout, And burst the cannons roar ;The meteor of the ocean air Shall sweep the clouds no more. Her deck, once red with heroes ])lood, Where knelt the vanquished foe,When winds were hurrying oer the flood. And wa\es were white below.No more shall feel the victors tread, Or know the conquered… … Nail to thp mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail, And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale ! Holmes.
