To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
62 HEARTS OF OAK.— AN EPITAPH (march 8, 1862.) To quarters — stand by, my hearties !
Every shot to-day must tell — Here they come at last, the lubbers, Boxed up in their iron shell.
Aye, she 's heading dead athwart us, Where the fog begins to lift — Now a broadside, and all together, At the bloody rope- walk adrift !
How the hog-back's snout comes on us !
Give it again to 'em, boys !
Ah, there 's a crash at our counter Can be heard through all the noise !
'Tis like pitching of peas and pebbles ...— No matter for that, my men, Stand by, to send 'em another — Ah, I think we hulled her then !
63 Carpenter, how is the water ?
Gaining, sir, faster and higher ; 'Tis all awash in the ward-room — Never mind — ■ we can load and fire !
Let them charge with their Iron Devil, They never shall see our backs — What, all afloat on our gun-deck ?
Aye, your sponges and rammers to the racks !
Sinking, my hearts, at an anchor — But never say die till it 's o'er !
Are you ready there on the spar-deck ?
