'Twas on the eighth of February our gallant ship set sail,
Bound for the city of New York with a sweet and pleasant gale.
On the midnight of the seventh day, before our captain went to rest
He called unto his chief-mate and made him this behest.
"The Glasgow" Irish Songs of the Sea, James N. Healy, 1967.
The Glasgow actually went down 2/14/1837
