I am Constantine Kanaris: br I, who lie beneath this stone, br Twice into the air in thunder br Have the Turkish galleys blown. br br In my bed I died-a Christian, br Hoping straight with Christ to be; br Yet one earthly wish is buried br Deep within the grave with me- br br That upon the open ocean br When the third Armada came, br They and I had died together, br Whirled aloft on wings of flame.
