P. 92. =The Treachery of the Spaniards of Porto Rico.= From the Pepys collection in the Library of Magdalene College, Cambridge, v. 374.

P. 113. =England’s Great Loss by a Storm of Wind.= Printed in Ashton’s _Real Sailor Songs_, p. 40*. Another version is in the Madden collection, entitled _A Copy of Verses made upon the Loss of the Coronation, and eight more Ships of War_ (_Slipsongs_, i. 174, No. 372). A third version, printed in Marryat’s _Poor Jack_, is headed _The Return from the Baltic of the English Fleet under Admiral Sir Edward Russell_. All are late versions, and full of corruptions. They place the disaster in November, instead of September 1691, and differ in the names of the ships. According to Burchett, the Coronation was lost with most of her crew, the Harwich ‘ran on shore and bulged,’ the Royal Oak and Northumberland ‘tailed on the ground, though afterwards they were luckily got off’ (_Transactions at Sea_, p. 102; cf. Clowes, ii. 345). The second line of verse 4 is, in Marryat’s version, ‘But fiercely to the west did run’; in the Madden copy, ‘The sea strong to the west did run.’ In verse 5, Marryat’s version runs: ‘A-shore went the Northumberland, The Harwich and the Cumberland, The Lion, and the Warwick too; But Elizabeth, she had most for to rue, She came stem on, and her Lion broke, And she sunk the Gloster at the stroke.’ Marryat’s version draws a moral from the disaster: ‘They was punished for their misdeeds For grumbling when they had no needs.’ The Madden copy, on the other hand, says: ‘Walking Plymouth streets one day, I heard some sea captains for to say “God will reward us for our deeds, In flogging men when there’s no need.”’ There are many minor variations in the three versions which are not worth noting.
