THREE ships of mine now sail the sea:
One is my Love, and one is Fame;
But richer far my own Good Name,
My golden ship, my Argosy.
Blow strong, ye winds, press full their sails,
Hasten them on, ye favoring gales;
Safe from the perils of the sea,
O, waft them swiftly home to me.

Obstruct our path on every side,
And Love may flounder in the gale;
Blind Fortune steers her favorite, Fame;
But safe to port must never fail
The golden ship, a Stainless Name.
