. Ballads of bravery. WET sheet and a flowing sea,v,w A wind that follows fast, And fills the white and rustling sail,And bends the gallant bends the gallant mast, my boys. While, like the eagle the good ship flies, and leavesOld England on the lee. O, for a soft and gentle wind ! I heard a fair one cry ;But give to me the swelling breeze, And white waves heaving white waves heaving high, my lads, The good ship tight and free, —The world of waters is our vhome, And merry men are ^BALLADS OF BRAVERY. 159 The Leap of Curtius.
