The wild sea of my conscience, I did steer
Toward this remedy, whereupon we are

The glittering spears are ranked ready;
The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
The battle closes thick and bloody;
But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”

And bud to test surprises of sea air,”
