TWO STEAMSHIPS CBOSSING. If to your starboard Red appear, It is your duty to keep clear ; To act as judgment says is proper— To port, or starboard—back, or stop hor ; But when upon your port is seen A steamer's starboard light of Green, There's not so much for you to do. The Green light must keep clear of you. GENERA! CAUTION, Both in safety and in doubt, Always keep a good look-out; In danger, with no room to turn, Ease her! stop her ! go astern !
