The Flying Dutchman

Here comes the Flying Dutchman, comes fast through the hissing spray,
And proceeding by the tempest he heads for Table Bay.
With bird-like speed he's borne along before the howling blast,
But he never can cast anchor there, for the Bay, alas, he's passed.

~~THE FLYING DUTCHMAN~~
From the Oxford Book of Sea Songs, Palmer
