BALLADE OF OLD ADMIRALS
Our foes, whose flanks are ever scored
With the great gashes that they make—
These names shall strike a ringing chord—
Nelson and Rodney, Howe and Drake.
L’ENVOI
England, thy sons shall guard thy coast,
While the white waves in thunder break ;
While in these names we make our boast—
Nelson and Rodney, Howe and Drake.
