The Olde Barn. Part Two, {Cont'd}



The Olde Barn   Part Two {con'td}

Fortune smiled on ME as to my rocks below.
My 'hearties' sure, they'd anchored ME,
to save ME in a 'blow':

Quite as tall, quite as strong,
as ever a schooner sent,
 to sail the world so round.
 Alas for ME, no ports I'll ever see,
I'm fastened to the ground.
