Desperate Affairs Require Desperate Measures.

My Love Is Founded On Esteem, The Only Foundation That Can Make The Passion Last.

Duty Is The Great Business Of A Sea Officer; All Private Considerations Must Give Way To It, However Painful It May Be.

Thank God I Have Done My Duty.

The Business Of The English Commander-in-chief Being First To Bring An Enemy Fleet To Battle On The Most Advantageous Terms To Himself, (i Mean That Of Laying His Ships Close On Board The Enemy, As Expeditiously As Possible); And Secondly To Continue Them There Until The Business Is Decided.

Now I Can Do No More. We Must Trust To The Great Disposer Of All Events And The Justice Of Our Cause. I Thank God For This Opportunity Of Doing My Duty.
