A
The boy stood on the burning deck,
B
Whence all but he had fled;
A
The flame that lit the battle’s wreck,
B
Shone round him o’er the dead.
 
 
C
Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
D
As born to rule the storm;
C
A creature of heroic blood,
D
A proud, though childlike form.
 
 
E
The flames rolled on – he would not go,
F
Without his father’s word;
E
That father, faint in death below,
F
His voice no longer heard.
 
 
G
He called aloud – ‘Say, father, say
H
If yet my task is done?’
G
He knew not that the chieftain lay
H
Unconscious of his son.
 
 
I
‘Speak, father!’ once again he cried,
J
‘If I may yet be gone!’
I
– And but the booming shots replied,
J
And fast the flames rolled on.
 
 
K
Upon his brow he felt their breath
L
And in his waving hair;
K
And look’d from that lone post of death,
L
In still yet brave despair.
 
 
M
And shouted but once more aloud,
N
‘My father! must I stay?’
M
While o’er him fast, through sail and shroud,
N
The wreathing fires made way.
 
 
O
They wrapped the ship in splendour wild,
P
They caught the flag on high,
O
And streamed above the gallant child,
P
Like banners in the sky.
 
 
Q
There came a burst of thunder sound –
R
The boy – oh! where was he?
Q
Ask of the winds that far around
R
With fragments strewed the sea!
 
 
L
With mast, and helm, and pennon fair,
S
That well had borne their part,
L
But the noblest thing which perished there,
S
Was that young faithful heart.
