    "Oh, ship ahoy!" rang out the cry;
    "Oh, give us water or we die!"
    A voice came o'er the waters far,
    "Just drop your bucket where you are."
    And then they dipped and drank their fill
    Of water fresh from mead and hill;
    And then they knew they sailed upon
    The broad mouth of the Amazon.
