It's apparently also in Masefield's "A Sailor's Garland" (1906, page 314) with at least one different verse. Don't have the book, so can't check 'em all, but the quote I found online mentioned these, of which #4 is different:

One man to strike the bell
Two to take the wheel
Three the top-gallant braces
Four to man the capstan
