Heroes Of The "Titanic"

Honour the brave who sleep
Where the lost "Titanic" lies,
The men who knew what a man must do
When he looks Death in the eyes.

"Women and children first,"--
Ah, strong and tender cry!
The sons whom women had borne and nursed,
Remembered,--and dared to die.

The boats crept off in the dark:
The great ship groaned: and then,--
O stars of the night, who saw that sight,
Bear witness, These were men!
