   Convenient to the shore
   With eager steps I did approach
   Expecting something new
   A plaintiff voice had reached my ears

   And buried in the waves
   And that her stout undaunted crew
   had met with watery graves
   I then addressed a fair young maid
   that seemed to be in grief
   I told her for to clear [?] her spirits
   She soon might meet relief
   How many persons were on board
   I then to her did say
   Or how long has she been absent
