Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Champion of the Seas
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Champion of the Seas
There's another song, "The Grey hound" which describes the ship named, "Greyhound" as "The champion of the seas." It's unlikel;y that a ship would be named "THE Champion of the seas". It would be named "Champion of th e Seas" But this is really nit picking . The only ship I've ever heard of with the word, "The" in the name is, H.M.A.V. "The Bounty" (HMAV, His Majesty's Armed Vessel) There never was an H.M.S. Bounty. HMS is strictly reserved for warships, which "The Bounty was not.

You don't have snow and hail together, Hail is a hot weather phenomenon. Sleet is a cold weather phenomenon and would easily be associated with snow. But, then, this is just more nit picking . Fsorget I mentioned it. MaFazoo is ready to hit me with a "blivet"
