"Then, to bring them home again, Safe to revel in their fame With tales of valour, harsh and virile, Treasures taken in Gods' names." "Crab pots stacked, fat diesel straining At the white and foam-flecked wave. Echo sounding, seaman rounding Dark mull skirts a watery grave" "Which calls to lure brave navigators Who venture far from harbour home, Burning with that lust of feisty Fisher-folk who live to roam."
