Someone has scrawled the lyrics to a traditional sailor shanty on this ragged scrap of paper.
"I found my spine on the Deadfire Lines,
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
From a Dyrwood babe to a sailor fine,
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Now Deadfire routes they make good time
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
With the clear wide straits, and inlets fine
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Oh they're the lines where you can shine
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
They're the lines where I spent my prime
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Just take a trip to Port Maje
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
To Port Maje where the sailors stay
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Then Vailian captains you'll see there
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
With their knee-high boots, and fine dark hair
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Oh around Cape White to Port Maje
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Oh around Cape White is a damn long way
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Around Cape White with a sky sail set
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Around Cape White and we’re ringing’ wet
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
Well if we drown when we are young
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!
It’s better to be drowned than hung
Hoorah for the Deadfire Lines!"
