Good fellow, in conundrums you are speaking
⁠(Sing hey, the mystic sailor that you are),
The answer to them vainly I am seeking
⁠(Sing hey, the Merry Maiden and the Tar!).

Of course the Captain was completely puzzled, having no idea what Deadeye was alluding to. So Dick explained:

Kind Captain, your young lady is a sighing
⁠(Sing hey, the simple Captain that you are),
This very night with Rackstraw to be flying
⁠(Sing hey, the Merry Maiden and the Tar!).
