A great ship askes deepe waters. [A great ship asks deep waters.]

The wooden wall alone should remain unconquered.

She bears her down majestically near, Speed on her prow, and terror in her tier.

She walks the waters like a thing of life, And seems to dare the elements to strife.

We will build new ships to carry man forward into the universe, to gain a new foothold on the moon and to prepare for new journeys to the worlds beyond our own.

For why drives on that ship so fast, Without or wave or wind? The air is cut away before, And closes from behind.
