I never got into a foren port but I kept a watch out for Kitty.

Once I thought I seed her in Liverpool, but it was only a gal as looked like her.

The numbers of women in different parts of the world as looked like her was amazin'.

So a good many years crawled by, an' I wandered from place to place, never givin' up the sarch.

I might have been chief mate scores of times, maybe master; but I hadn't no ambition.
