Explore "Disaster to Steamer Victoria at London" by James McIntyre on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
At London Thames is a broad stream, / Which was the scene of a sad theme, / A fragile steamer there did play, / O'ercrowded on a Queen's Birthday, / While all on board was bright and gay, / But soon 'neath the cold waters lay, / Naught but forms of lifeless clay, / Which made, alas! sad month of May.
