Who is captain of this ship, when the rigging is set by the ensigns, the fuel by the firemen, the course by the lieutenant? Who is the captain of this ship, when the admiral put the fleet to sea, the queen ordered the fleet built?
Who holds the glass to look for land, and to call the alarm before the rocks?
Who abandons war for one fair touch?
Who lets go their grip, before being sewn into sailcloth, and sent sliding into grey green water?
