Text Appearing Before Image:
- He steered the ship to land. John Maynard, can you still hold out ? He heard the captain cry.A voice from out the stifling smoke Faintly responds, Ay, ay ! But half a mile ! A hundred hands Stretch eagerly to shore.But half a mile! That distance sped, Peril shall all be oer.But half a mile ! Yet stay! The flames No longer slowly creep,But gather round the helmsman bold With fierce, impetuous sweep. John Maynard, with an anxious voice, The captain cries once more, Stand by the wheel five minutes yet. And we will reach the shore. S^:
Text Appearing After Image:
Uff5 BALLADS OF BRAVERY. 147 Through flames and smoke that dauntless heart Resjoonded firmly still,Unawed, though face to face with death, With Gods good help, I will! The flames approach with giant strides, They scorch his hands and brow \One arm disabled seeks his side: Ah, he is conquered now!But no; his teeth are firmly set. He crushes down his pain;His knee upon the stanchion pressed, He guides the ship again. One moment yet, one moment yet! Brave heart, thy task is oer!The pebbles grate beneath the keel. The steamer touches shore.Three hundred grateful voices rise In praise to God, that HeHath saved them from the fearful fire And from th ingulfing sea. But where is he, that helmsman bold ? The captain saw* him reel;His nerveless hands released their task, He sank beside the wheel.The wave received his lifeless corpse. Blackened with smoke and fire.God rest him ! Never hero had A nobler funeral pyre. va ^ m m ^j- 148 BALLADS OF BK AVERY. pXCALlBUI^.
