     And when it was concluded�察�and the priest had said his say�察�Until the 

time   arrived   when   they   were   both   to   drive   away�察  �They   never   spoke   or 

offered   for   to   fondle   or   to   fawn�察  �For   HE   waited   in   the   attic�察  �and   SHE 

waited on the lawn。 

     At   length�察  �when   four    o'clock   arrived�察  �and   it   was  time   to  go�察 �The 

carriage   was   announced�察  �but   decent   SARAH   answered   ;No�   �Upon   my 

word�察�I'd rather sleep my everlasting nap�察�Than go and ride alone with MR。 

PETER in a trap。; 

     And     PETER'S       over´sensitive     and   highly´polished      mind     Wouldn't 

suffer him to sanction a proceeding of the kind�察�And further�察�he declared 

he    suffered    overwhelming        shocks    At   the   bare   idea   of   having    any 

coachman on the box。 

     So PETER into one turn´out incontinently rushed�察�While SARAH in a 

second trap sat modestly and blushed�察�And MR。 NEWMAN'S coachman�察�

on authority I've heard�察�Drove away in gallant style upon the coach´box of 

a third。 

     Now�察  �though   this   modest   couple   in   the   matter   of   the   car   Were   very 

likely   carrying   a   principle   too   far�察  �I   hold   their   shy   behaviour   was   more 

laudable   in   them   Than   that   of   PETER'S   brother   with   MISS   SARAH'S 

sister EM。

to EMMIE ��who had impudence for six���察 �MISS EMILY�察�I love you ´ will 

you marry�拭      �Say the word� ─�And EMILY said�察 �Certainly�察�ALPHONSO�察�

like a bird� ─�

     I do not recommend a newly´married pair to try To carry on as PETER 

carried on with SARAH BLIGH�察�But still their shy behaviour was more 

laudable   in   them   Than   that   of   PETER'S   brother   with   MISS   SARAH'S

                   Ballad�此               �The Martinet 



     Some   time   ago�察  �in   simple   verse   I   sang   the   story   true   Of   CAPTAIN 

REECE�察�the MANTELPIECE�察�And all her happy crew。 

    I showed how any captain may Attach his men to him�察�If he but heeds 

their smallest needs�察�And studies every whim。 

    Now   mark   how�察  �by   Draconic   rule   And   HAUTEUR   ill´advised�察  �The 

noblest crew upon the Blue May be demoralized。 

    When      his  ungrateful    country   placed    Kind   REECE      upon    half´pay�察�

Without much claim SIR BERKELY came�察�And took command one day。 

     SIR BERKELY was a martinet ´ A stern unyielding soul ´ Who ruled 

his ship by dint of whip And horrible black´hole。 

    A sailor who was overcome From having freely dined�察�And chanced to 

reel when at the wheel�察�He instantly confined� �

    And tars who�察�when an action raged�察�Appeared alarmed or scared�察�And 

those below who wished to go�察�He very seldom spared。 

    E'en    he  who    smote    his  officer  For   punishment     was   booked�察   �And 

mutinies upon the seas He rarely overlooked。 

    In   short�察  �the   happy   MANTELPIECE�察  �Where   all   had   gone   so   well�察�

Beneath that fool SIR BERKELY'S rule Became a floating hell。 

    When first SIR BERKELY came aboard He read a speech to all�察�And 

told them how he'd made a vow To act on duty's call。 

     Then   WILLIAM   LEE�察  �he   up   and   said   ��The   Captain's   coxswain   he���察�

;We've heard the speech your honour's made�察�And werry pleased we be。 

     ;We   won't   pretend�察  �my   lad�察  �as   how   We're   glad   to   lose   our   REECE�察�

Urbane�察�polite�察�he suited quite The saucy MANTELPIECE。 

     ;But   if   your   honour  gives   your   mind   To   study   all   our   ways�察  �With 

dance and song we'll jog along As in those happy days。 

     ;I   like   your   honour's   looks�察  �and   feel   You're   worthy   of   your   sword。 

Your hand�察�my lad ´ I'm doosid glad To welcome you aboard� ─�

     SIR    BERKELY        looked   amazed�察    �as  though    He   didn't  understand。 

;Don't shake your head�察─�good WILLIAM said�察 �It is an honest hand。 

     ;It's grasped a better hand than yourn ´ Come�察�gov'nor�察�I insist� ─�The

Captain stared ´ the coxswain glared ´ The hand became a fist� �

     ;Down�察�upstart� ─�said the hardy salt�察�But BERKELY dodged his aim�察�

And made him go in chains below�此�The seamen murmured ;Shame� ─�

     He stopped all songs at 12 p。m。�察�Stopped hornpipes when at sea�察�And 

swore his cot ��or bunk�� should not Be used by aught than he。 

     He   never   joined   their   daily   mess�察  �Nor   asked   them   to   his   own�察  �But 

chaffed in gay and social way The officers alone。 

     His First Lieutenant�察�PETER�察�was As useless as could be�察�A helpless 

stick�察�and always sick When there was any sea。 

     This First Lieutenant proved to be His foster´sister MAY�察�Who went to 

sea for love of he In masculine array。 

     And when he learnt the curious fact�察�Did he emotion show�察�Or dry her 

tears or end her fears By marrying her�拭          �No� �

     Or   did   he   even   try   to   soothe   This   maiden   in   her   teens�拭  �Oh�察  �no�    � 

instead he made her wed The Sergeant of Marines� �

     Of   course   such   Spartan   discipline   Would   make   an   angel   fret�察  �They 

drew a lot�察�and WILLIAM shot This fearful martinet。 

     The Admiralty saw how ill They'd treated CAPTAIN REECE�察�He was 

restored once more aboard The saucy MANTELPIECE。

up�察  �MATILDA�   �Recall   again   the   mental   pain   Of   what   I've   had   to   do�察�
