The Whale Ship Is the True Mother of That Now Mighty Colony

The whale ship is the true mother of that now mighty colony. The emigrants were several times saved from starvation by the benevolent biscuit of the whale ship, luckily dropping an anchor in their waters. But then i'll confess that somehow whaling is not respectable. Whaling is imperial. By old english statutory law, the whale is declared a royal fish. Oh, that's only nominal. They have something better than royal blood. There. This day, darting the barbed iron from one side, of the world to the other good again.
