Laura Glaucus
English source:
HMS Resolute
_From a newspaper published aboard the HMS Resolute (c. 1851)_
Laura Glaucus Leaves the ‘Resolute’ and Dies Onboard the ‘Assistance.’
Laura Glaucus, why didst roam,
And die midst strangers at a distance?
Alas! Why not remain at home,
And earn thy bread without Assistance?

And earn thy bread without Assistance?
