The spirits of your fathers
Should watch you from the wave!--
The brine, it was their field of fame;
On turf you're just as brave.
As VAN TROMP'S and DE RUYTER'S did
Your manly breasts must glow
As you smite left and right,
While the balls for "boundaries" go;
Whilst the batsmen run 'em fast and long,
And the balls for "boundaries" go!
