FROM east and west across the horizon's edge,Two mighty masterful vessels sailers steal upon us:But we'll make race a-time upon the seas—a battle-contest yet! bear lively there!(Our joys of strife and derring-do to the last!)Put on the old ship all her power to-day!Crowd top-sail, top-gallant and royal studding-sails,Out challenge and defiance—flags and flaunting pennants added,As we take to the open—take to the deepest, freest waters.
