Toll Nelson's knell; a soul more brave Ne'er triumph'd on the green-sea wave. Sad o'er the hero's honour'd grave, Toll Nelson's knell. The ball of death unerring flew; His cheek has lost its ardent hue, He sinks amid his gallant crew. Toll Nelson's knell Yet lift, brave chief thy dying eyes; Hark, loud huzzas around thee rise; Aloft the flag of conquest flies; The day is won. The day is won: peace to the brave; But, whilst the joyous streamers wave, We'll think upon the victor's grave. Peace to the brave.
