'Elizabeth Block says, "I think the antepenultimate line of the last verse should be “Unblessed by Fortune’s wheel”"'

I very much doubt that Jeffreys and Nelson wrote "Wheel"... and the facsimile sheet music linked
here certainly has "gale".

Ms Block is free to change the words as they like, but I don't think it's an improvement, and "should" is a strong word...
