Come, come, now ES --- I must admist that Barry-Y is a very talented poet, but there are other poems written that would also be fitting for the GD, such as:
- The Captains Name was Carter.
- The Boy Stood on the Burning Deck.
- Away, Away, with Fife and Drum.
- 'Twas on the Good Ship Venus.
- There was a Young Man from Nantucket, etc., etc.
In the light of those, the Blake was a refreshing and enlightening change.
