Elocutionary and Dancing Competitions. (CONTINUED) Class 14—Recitation. Boys under 12. HAWKE. In seventeen hundred and fifty-nine, When Hawke came swooping from the West, The French King’s Admiral with twenty of the line^ Was sailing forth, to sack us, out of BrestThe ports of France were crowded, The quays of France a-hum With thirty thousand soldiers marching to the drum, For bragging time was over and fighting time was come When Hawke came swooping from the West. Twas long past noon of a wild November day When Hawke came swooping from the West; He heard the breakers thundering in Quiberon Bay But he flew the flag for battle, line abreast. Down upon the quicksands roaring out of sight Fiercely beat the storm-wind, darkly fell the night, But they took the foe for piolot and the cannon’s glare for light, When Hawke came swooping from the West. The Frenchmen turned like a covey down the wind When Hawke came swooping from the West; One he sank with all hands, one he caught and pinned, And the shallows and the storm took the rest. The guns that should have conquered us They rusted on the shore, The men that should have mastered us, They drummed and marched no more, For England w T as England, and a mighty brood she bore When Hawke came swooping from the West. —Henry Newbolt.
