H.M.S. HOOD
Gallant Hood, you will sail no more, Upon the seven seas.
Nor return again to England’s shore, Your ensign fluttering in the breeze.
Gallant Hood, you’ll never forgotten be, In every British heart, Noble guardian of the sea: In freedom’s cause you've played a faithful part.
Gallant Hood, and your men so brave, Doing their duty, staunch and true, Britannia will ever rule the waves, While there are men like you. —3 marks to Cousin Keith Brighton (11), Box 30, Nightcaps.
