You got the rhyme and date all wrong. I distinctly remember it from Richard Armour's short history of America,"It All Started with Columbus," from when I was in 10th grade: To wit:
In fourteen hundred, ninety-three,
Columbus sailed the deep blue sea.
Consider yourself corrected.

PS-Mr. Rosenheimer, AmHist teacher, got it wrong also.
