Lorick #146:

a hero with national favour

a sailor, circumnavigator

a scourge of the spaniards

and knight of the lanyard

a killer, a robber, a slaver

But first, we solve #147 - here it is one last time:

I had gall, and charisma, ambition

crossed a river, an act of sedition

have my month, it's not march

my right hand grabs the torch

when I'm killed by a cruel coalition
