CHARLES SACKVILLE, EARL OF DORSET 1638-1706 408. Song Written at Sea, in the First Dutch War (166$), the night before an Engagement.
'O all you ladies now at land We men at sea indite; But first would have you understand How hard it is to write: The Muses now, and Neptune too, We must implore to write to you— With a fa, la, la, la, la.
T For though the Muses should prove kind, And fill our empty brain, Yet if rough Neptune rouse the wind To wave the azure main, Our paper, pen, and ink, and we, ...Roll up and down our ships at sea— With a fa, la, la, la, la.
Then if we write not by each post, Think not we are unkind; Nor yet conclude our ships are lost By Dutchmen or by wind: Our tears we'll send a speedier way, The tide shall bring them twice a day— With a fa, la, la, la, la.
The King with wonder and surprise Will swear the seas grow bold, Because the tides will higher rise Than e'er they did of old: But let him know it is our tears Bring floods of grief to Whitehall stairs— With a fa, la, la, la, la.
