Not only was this powerhouse of a woman a pirate, but she was also a queen! After her husbandвЂ™s death in 231BC, Teuta became queen regent. Teuta of Illyria вЂ“ One of the earliest known female pirates was Teuta of Illyria. From them on Sadie wore the ear around her neck in a locket, and worked as a pirate on the Hudson and Harlem Rivers, earning the name вЂQueen of the WaterfrontвЂ™.Д©. She left her home town of Manhattan following a brawl which resulted in her ear being bitten off. Sadie the Goat вЂ“ Operating in America during the 19 th Century, Sadie Farrell, known as Sadie the Goat, was a New York gang leader and river pirate. WeвЂ™ve compiled a list of our ten favourite fierce female swashbucklers!ДЎ0. Other females who couldnвЂ™t find crews to join became Captains and started their own. He uses sadness and happiness together gracefully while never losing the seriousness of the matter.A lot of people still think that only men were pirates вЂ“ itвЂ™s true that some buccaneers believed that it would be bad luck to have a woman on board, but this didnвЂ™t stop many females disguising their identity (and gender!) to join the crew, or captains ignoring the rule all together, like our very own Calico Jack. Whitman accepts Lincolns death with dignity and sympathy for the nation.

If a follower feels moved by a dead leader and feels as if he should continue on that leaders quest, than the leader has done a successful job. Expressions that should be felt if a leader was great. Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells! these are strong words, empowering words. Whitman must remember that Lincoln was victorious, that there should be feelings of joy and triumphant power. Though he feels pain, joy shines through. In the last verse, Whitman begins to feel some true joy, joy in the remembrance of Lincoln.

He examines his pale lips and his stillness in a kind of awkward silence. Whitman looks at his Captain, his father. Years of looking at smiles and expressions from that person will be all but a memory. A dead loved one will be buried and gone forever. When a parent dies, or anyone that is loved for that matter, it is not odd to really look at them after they die. A father is loved, respected, and should be shown loyalty from his children. There was an eagerness, a longing for his return, for you the shores a-crowding.ДЄ man calling another man father is a sign of great love.

Lincolns death was so sudden that it left the country in misbelief. Whitman uses metaphors of bells and ribbond wreaths to show his loyalty towards Lincoln. Rather than mourn for a death, people were prepared for celebrating Lincolns victory. Lincoln was victorious in his struggle or as Whitman puts it, the price we sought was won. Whitman tells of a fearful trip, a trip only taken with someone respected and trusted. O Captain! My captain, our fearful trip is done. The Captain in the poem had that respect. Abraham Lincoln had people behind him, people who would follow him boldly into any situation. In O Captain! My Captain, Walt Whitman metaphorically uses the image of a Captain to depict the respect, loyalty and love he and his countrymen felt for Abraham Lincoln.ДЇor a Captain to lead his crew, he must have the respect of his crew. Mourning the death of such a leader is an even great task. The ability to move a great people is a virtue lacked by many leaders.
