There was one that was a supposed conversation between Sir Francis Drake and Horatio Nelson as they looked down on the Navy of 1914, that I once heard many years ago and I can only remember snatches of it.

"What hearest thou Sir Francis
I hear thin wires a-speakin'
What see you now Lord Nelson
I see great lights a flashin'
They are fighting in the heavens
They're at war beneath the sea
Aye their ways are mighty different
From the ways of you and me"

Lots missing then

"Three leagues that shot hath carried
Lord that that could ever be
It's clear to me Lord Nelson
They have done with you and me

Look one more time Sir Francis
I see the flags a flappin'
Hark once again Sir Francis
I hear the sticks a-tappin'
It's a sight that calls us hither
And a sound that bids us come
For it's my old Trafalgar Signal
It's the beating of my drum

Are you ready good Sir Francis
See they wait upon the quay
Praise be to God Lord Nelson
They remember you and me
