    How little they know o'er that young sailor brave
    That wild waters and winds sound a dirge o'er his grave.
    7. The sea flowers bloom sweetly where that sailor reposes
    A stranger to all, not a comrade or friend.
    Ah! sad is the tale this lone grave discloses
    To few known his grave, God alone knows his end.
