“The following song was composed by James McEntyre Behamore, Carrigallen on the sinking of the Titanic.”
The Sea was calm, the Stars shone bright
The wind was scarce a breath
When Britain's pride, her youngest ship
Ran madly to her death
Put two and twenty hundred souls
Bound for America unconscious of the iceberg large
That firmly barred her way
That from the arctic frozen fields
By angry currents rent
A fearful monster of the north
On deadly errand sent
Came down that night where all was still
And blocked the steamer's way
And like a tiger crouching law
Awaiting for its preyUpon her maiden voyage bound
With speed unequalled yet
The gallant ship Titanic came
Her throttles open set
Propelled by engines powerful
The mightiest man could make
I was her determination
All fast records to break(continues on next page)- Informant
