Jerry-

There are several CFS poems which have been set to 3 or more melodies and recorded at this point. The poems are relatively easy to fit to traditional tunes. The real challenge is to channel the right one!

With "Sou' Spain" I really like both arrangements, the one by William Pint and the one by Alan Fitzsimmonds. Any other thoughts?

For those who are less familiar with old sailor jargon, "donkey's breakfast" is a reference to a sailors straw-filled matress. After a long deep-sea voyage it must have been less than appetizing.

Cheerily,
