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!
