GUEST,Phil d'Conch Maritime work song in general (725* d) RE: Maritime work song in general 22 May 23


“On arriving off the island of Poros, instead of continuing our course towards Athens, we turned aside, and ran in to communicate with H.M.S. Cymbrian; we did not anchor, but the captain repaired on board, and in ten minutes we held the pipe, “All hands up anchor,” and the capstan moving round to the air of that most approved and fashionable bravura, “Fiddle dum dee.””
[Cavendish; or, the Patrician at Sea, Vol.2, Neale, 1831]
William Johnson Neale (1812–1893) –– English barrister and novelist.
