So, you don’t have to be an expert on the history of the British Navy to have heard of Horatio Nelson.

You can’t help but be at least a little embarrassed for him though, right?

So, Horatio Nelson and British Naval history was never very important to me, I confess.

Horatio Nelson is a famous historical figure you probably would’ve
learned about in high school in the context of other historical stuff.

So, I didn't remember Horatio Nelson. I'm not that big a fan of war history.

HTH and HAND.

Yes, it's more timeless; but it has to be compared with countless other
poems in the same tenor, and suffers from the comparison.

Man's a poor deluded bubble,
Wand'ring in a mist of lies,
Seeing false, or seeing double,
Who wou'd trust to such weak eyes?
Yet presuming on his senses,
On he goes most wond'rous wise:
Doubts of truth, believes pretences;
Lost in error, lives and dies.

There's no need to guess: as George Michael might say, on the
third-to-next day, you gave it away:

""I have read your "work"... and how much it came across as you
inadvertently speaking about yourself. They say when you point a finger
at someone, there's the other three fingers of yours pointing right back
at 'ya!....
"This is definitely you writing about YOU!"

You might know him better in the Horatio Hornblower character based on him...

I know a LOT about him, being a Navy man and a follower of navy lore from childhood and so on....
