         On the 15th of February
          We sailed from the land,
          In the Bold Princes Royal
          Bound for Newfoundland.

And the song has a happy ending, except for the frustrated pirates who failed to earn their plunder and were forced to pawn their golden legs at the nearest port for bread and a little flat wine.

Cheerily,
