Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Brittannia´s Bulwarks: An Historical Poem, Descriptive of the Deeds of the British Navy When battling hard ´gainst heavy odds (Like Curtius, who, to appease the gods, Sprang in the yawning gulf); And also, gallant souls! to you, Whose bones the seas expanse bestrew, A countless multitude; And to the living who, no less, In times of future storm and stress. Will not betray their trust. I will a tale unfold of these Sea warriors and their victories, Achieved in every clime. The like of which was never known Since first at sea a flag was flown Or sail has wooed the breeze; And may some future bard rehearse The battles yet unfought, in verse More worthy of the theme! To you, then, sons of Neptune! one Who served beneath an Eastern sun From China to the Cape, Now humbly consecrates these lays. A tribute from his muse in praise Of heroes passed away!
