- (continued from previous page)From Queenstown quay we sailed away.
The weather being calm and fine.
On board of that gallant wheryoman.
In that famous sky and line.
At the day of our departure.

'Twas on a Sunday morning.
On the sixteenth day of May.

And they losing sight of land.I long to see those green fields.
And meadows in their prime.
In lonely haunts of bygone days.(continues on next page)- Collector
