" Then Long and loud, like lions roar When a rival dares the den, Breaks the awful cannonry Full across Cavite s lee.
Who shall tell the thrilling tale Of Our Thunderbolt s attack, Finding, when the chart should fail, By the lead his dubious track, Five ships following faithfully Five times o er Cavite s lee ; Of our gunners deadly aim ; Of the gallant foe and brave Who, unconquered, faced with flame, Seek the mercy of the wave Choosing honor in the sea Underneath Cavite s lee!
Let the meed the... victors gain Be the measure of their task.
Less of flinching, stouter strain, Fiercer combat who could ask ?
15 226 DEWEY AT MANILA And "surrender" t was a word That Cavite ne er had heard.
Noon the woeful work is done!
Not a Spanish ship remains ; But, of their eleven, none Ever was so truly Spain s! Which is prouder, they or we, Thinking of Cavite s lee?
ENVOY BUT remember, when we Ve ceased Giving praise and reckoning odds, Man shares courage with the beast, Wisdom cometh from the gods.
Who would win, on land or wave, Must be wise as well as brave.
