IN grappled ships around The Victory, <br />Three boys did England's Duty with stout cheer, <br />While one dread truth was kept from every ear, <br />More dire than deafening fire that churned the sea: <br />For in the flag-ship's weltering cockpit, he <br />Who was the Battle's Heart without a peer, <br />He who had seen all fearful sights save Fear, <br />Was passing from all life save Victory. <br />And round the old memorial board to-day, <br />Three greybeards—each a warworn British Tar— <br />View through the mist of years that hour afar: <br />Who soon shall greet, 'mid memories of fierce fray, <br />The impassioned soul which on its radiant way <br />Soared through the fiery cloud of Trafalgar.<br /><br />Dante Gabriel Rossetti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-last-three-from-trafalgar-at-the-anniversary-banquet-st-october/
