VERSE
TO MEN IN SHIPS Honour to the admiral! Glory to the ranks ! Reverence for the bravest hearts Who know in death our thanks I No soldier of His Majesty Or airman may eclipse The everlasting thankfulness We feel to men in ships. Please remember this from me, Sailor, when you go; We know well you keep us free Wherever oceans flow; To speak to you of gratitude Might seem to come from lips; But sailor, from our silent hearts, Thanks to you men in ships. —H.G.
