== Synopsis ==
In this ballad, a sailor addresses those who stay on land and know nothing about the perils of the ocean. The sailor describes the horrors of a big storm and the valiant courage required to face the dangers of the ocean. In addition to facing storms, the sailor boasts that he and his fellow seamen will gallantly face any naval force and shrink from no enemy. The people of England benefit from the courage and constancy of the sailor, he explains, through the spices, wines, and other goods he brings back from distant lands as well as the security afforded by a naval presence. The sailor calls on the people who stay on land to think about this, and then closes the ballad with a celebration of the rejoicing he will do in the taverns once back on land.
