"Three ma'am!"

"—Three!"

Might have something to do with having to beg the Scots to pretty please not be rebellious and vote to leave the union.

And when this day of battle is ended, we shall meet again in heaven, or on the waves of victory!"

Gentlemen in England now abed will think themselves accursed they were not here...

"My loving friends! We see the sails of the enemy approaching. We hear the Abyssal guns over the water. Soon now, we will meet them face to face. I am resolved in the midst and heat of the battle to live or die amongst you all!

While we stand together, no invader shall pass. Let them come with the navies of hell! They will not pass!

And when this day of battle is ended, we shall meet again in heaven, or on the waves of victory!"

Insert Handel's Zadok the Priest at an increased (but not too audacious) volume.

God grant that Marshal Wade
Shall by Thy mighty aid
Victory bring!
Let him sedition hush
And like a torrent rush
Rebellious Scots to crush!
God save the King!

Wow, that is one majestic Warspite. If there was ever a picture of her that captured the essence of "Rule Britannia", this would probably be it.

Land of hope and glory, mother of the free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.

I vow to thee, my country,
All earthly things above.
Entire and whole and perfect,
The service of my love.

The love that asks no questions,
The love that stands the test.
That lays upon the alter,
The dearest and the best.

The love that never falters,
The love that pays the price.
The love that makes undaunted,
The final sacrifice.

When Britain first at Heaven's command
Arose from out the azure main
Arose, arose, arose from out the azure main
This was the charter, the charter of the land
And guardian angels sang this strain:

Rule, Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves!
