6. In order to increase productivity, the nurse manager of the surgical unit removes obstacles for
motivated and empowered individuals. This behavior is common in which type of organizational
model?
a. Autocratic c. Collegial
b. Custodial d. Technological
ANS: C
In Table 3-1, Clark summarizes and compares models of organizational behavior. The collegial model
is based on partnership, teamwork, and employee support that removes obstacles for motivated and
empowered individuals. Both autocratic and custodial models are managed by power, authority,
economics, and money, which have employees dependent on the boss or the organization. Technology
is not a model or organizational behavior discussed.

has shown today’s health care employees prefer a more supportive and collegial work environment
empowering the individual. Passive cooperation is seen in the custodial model. Dependency on the
organization is seen in the custodial model. Motivation by money, security, and benefits is seen in the
custodial model.

And when John Dory to Paris was come,
A little before the gate-a,
John Dory was fitted, the porter was witted
To let him in thereat-a.

3
The first man that John Dory did meet
Was good king John of France-a;
John Dory could well of his courtesie,
But fell downe in a trance-a.

4
‘A pardon, a pardon, my liege and my king,
For my merie men and for me-a,
And all the churles in merie England,
I’le bring them all bound to thee-a.’

5
And Nicholl was then a Cornish man,
A little beside Bohide-a,
And he mande forth a good blacke barke,
With fiftie good oares on a side-a.

6
‘Run vp, my boy, vnto the maine top,
And looke what thou canst spie-a:’
‘Who ho! who ho! a goodly ship I do see,
I trow it be John Dory[-a.’]

7
They hoist their sailes, both top and top,
The meisseine and all was tride-a,
And euery man stood to his lot,
What euer should betide-a.

The roring cannons then were plide,
And dub-a-dub went the drumme-a;
The braying trumpets lowde they cride
To courage both all and some-a.

The grappling-hooks were brought at length,
The browne bill and the sword-a,
John Dory at length, for all his strength,
Was clapt fast vnder board-a.

FOOTNOTES:
[100] The song “I cannot eat but little meat,” introduced into Gammer
Gurton’s Needle, which was acted in 1566, was sung to ‘John Dory,’ says Mr
Chappell, as above; but there is nothing to show that this was the original
tune.

THE GEORGE ALOE AND THE
SWEEPSTAKE
a. Percy Papers, “from an ancient black-letter copy in
Ballard’s collection.”
b. Rawlinson, 566, fol. 183, 4o.
c. Roxburghe, III, 204, in Ebsworth, Roxburghe Ballads, VI,
408.

March 19, 1611, there were entered to Richard Jones, “Captayne

Jenninges his songe, whiche he made in the Marshalsey,” etc., and “the
second parte of the George Aloo and the Swiftestake, beinge both
ballades:” Arber, III, 456. The second part of the George Aloo must
needs mean a second ballad, not the printers’ second half (which begins
in c at the stanza here numbered 14). In ‘The Two Noble Kinsmen,’
printed in 1634, and perhaps earlier, the Jailer’s Daughter sings the two
following stanzas (Dyce, XI, 386):

The George Alow came from the south,

From the coast of Barbary-a,
And there he met with brave gallants of war,
By one, by two, by three-a.

Well haild, well haild, you jolly gallants,

And whither now are you bound-a?
Oh, let me have your company
Till [I] come to the sound-a.

These verses, whether accurately reported or not, certainly seem to

belong to another ballad. Whether they are from the first part or the
second part, we have no means of assuring ourselves. It is to be observed
that in the ballad before us the George Aloe and the Sweepstake are
sailing for Safee, and in the other case the George Aloe is coming from
the south, from the coast of Barbary, so that the adventure, whatever it
was, may have occurred in the homeward voyage; but the circumstance
is not decisive.[101]
The George Aloe and the Sweepstake, merchantmen, are bound for
Safee. The George Aloe anchors, the Sweepstake keeps on, is taken by a
French rover, and her crew thrown overboard. The George Aloe hears of
this, and sets out to take the Frenchman. Her second shot carries away
the enemy’s mainmast; the Frenchmen cry for mercy. The English ask
what they did with the crew of the Sweepstake; the Frenchmen confess
that they threw them into the sea. Such mercy as you shewed such mercy
shall you have, say the English, and deal with the French accordingly.
‘Aboard,’ 62, 162, I suppose to mean alongside. ‘Amain,’ 71, 161, is
strike (sails) in sign of surrender. The French use the word derived from
their own language; the English say, strike. ‘Gallant’ Englishmen in 71,
after ‘English dogs’ in 61, is unlikely courtesy, and is not found in 161.
‘The Swepstacke’ is a king’s ship in 1545, and ‘The Sweepstakes’
apparently again in 1666: Historical MSS Commission, 12th Report,
Appendix, Part VII, pp. 8, 45.

1
The George Aloe and the Sweepstakes too,
With hey, with ho, for and a nony no
They were two merchant-men, a sailing for Safee.
And along the course of Barbary

2
[The George Aloe to anchor came,
But the jolly Sweepstake kept on her way.]

3
They had not sayled leagues two or three
Before they spyed a sail upon the sea.

4
‘O hail, O hail, you lusty gallants,
From whence is your good ship, and whither is she bound?’

5
‘O we are some merchant-men, sailing for Safee:’
‘And we be French rebels, a roving on the sea.

6
‘O hail, O hail, you English dogs, [hail!]’
‘The[n] come aboard, you French dogs, and strike down your
sail!’

7
‘Amain, amain, you gallant Englishmen!’
‘Come, you French swades, and strike down your sails!’

8
They laid us aboard on the starboard side,
And they overthrew us into the sea so wide.

9
When tidings to the George Aloe came
That the jolly Sweepstakes by a Frenchman was tane,

10
‘To top, to top, thou little ship-boy,
And see if this French man-of-war thou canst descry.’

11
‘A sail, a sail, under your lee,
Yea, and another under her bough.’

12
‘Weigh anchor, weigh anchor, O jolly boatswain,
We will take this Frenchman if we can.’

13
We had not sailed leagues two or three
But we met the French man-of-war upon the sea.

14
‘All hail, all hail, you lusty gallants,
Of whence is your fair ship, and whither is she bound?’

15
‘O we are merchant-men, and bound for Safee;’
‘And we are Frenchmen, roving upon the sea.

16
‘Amain, amain, you English dogs!’
‘Come aboard, you French rogues, and strike your sails!’

17
The first good shot the George Aloe shot,
It made the Frenchmen’s hearts sore afraid.

18
The second shot the George Aloe did afford,
He struck the main-mast over the board.

19
‘Have mercy, have mercy, you brave English[men].’
‘O what have you done with our brethren on [shore]?’
As they sail[ed].

20
‘We laid them aboard on the starboard side,
And we threw them into the sea so wide.’

21
‘Such mercy as you have shewed unto them,
Even the like mercy shall you have again.’

22
We laid them aboard on the larboard side,
And we threw them into the sea so wide.

23
Lord, how it grieved our hearts full sore
To see the drowned Frenchmen float along the shore!

24
Now, gallant seamen all, adieu,
With hey, with ho, for and a nony no
This is the last news that I can write to you.

FOOTNOTES:
[101] There is an entry, July 31, 1590, of A Ditty of the fight upon the seas
the fourth of June last in the Straits of Gibraltar between the George and the
Thomas Bonaventure and eight galleys with three frigates (Arber, II, 557),
but it is likely that there were Georges many, and only one George Aloe.
Mr Ebsworth has pointed out that a ballad called The Sailor’s Joy, the name
of the tune to which ‘The George Aloe and the Sweepstake’ was to be sung,
was entered in the Stationers’ Registers, January 14, 1595: Arber, II, 669.

Motherwell enters the first stanza of another copy of ‘The Turkish
Galley’ in his Note-Book, p. 10, and refers to three copies more, besides
B d, at p. 51.
There is a retouched copy of C in English County Songs, Lucy E.
Broadwood and J. A. Fuller Maitland, p. 182.
B, C, are probably traditional variations of the broadside A. The
conclusion of the broadside is sufficiently inadequate to impel almost
any singer to attempt an improvement, and a rather more effective
catastrophe is the only signal difference besides names. It is, however,
not quite impossible that the ultimate source of the traditional copies
may be as old as the broadside.
A. ‘The Sweet Trinity,’ a ship built by Sir Walter Raleigh, has been taken
by a galley of a nationality not specified. The master of some English
ship asks what seaman will take the galley and redeem The Sweet
Trinity. A ship-boy asks what the reward shall be; the reward shall be
gold and fee, and the master’s eldest daughter. The ship-boy, who is
possessed of an auger which bores fifteen holes at once, swims to the
galley, sinks her, and releases The Sweet Trinity; then swims back to his
ship and demands his pay. The master will give gold and fee, but not his
daughter to wife. The ship-boy says, Farewell, since you are not so good
as your word.
B. No ship has been taken by an enemy. The Golden Vanity, Golden
Victorie, e, falls in with a French galley, which a cabin-boy undertakes to
sink for a reward. The reward is to be, a, b, an estate in the North
Country; c, half the captain’s lands in the South Country, meat and fee,
and the captain’s eldest daughter; e, gold and fee, and the captain’s
daughter. The boy is rolled up in a bull-skin and thrown over the deck-
board (a corruption, see C). He takes out an instrument, and bores thirty
holes at twice, a; a gimlet, and bores sixty holes and thrice, b; he struck
her with an instrument, bored thirty holes at twice, c; threescore holes he
scuttled in a trice, d; struck her wi an auger, thirty three and thrice, e.
After sinking the galley he calls to the Golden Vanity to throw him a
rope, take him on board, and be as good as their word, all which is
refused. He threatens to serve them as he has the galley, a, b, d; they take
him up and prove better than their word, a, d, or as good, b. (Of f very
little was remembered by Scott, and the ballad was besides confounded
with ‘The George Aloe.’[102])
C. The distinguishing feature is that the boy dies after he is taken up
from the water, and is sewed up in a cow’s hide and thrown overboard,
‘to go down with the tide.’ The Golden Vanity, a-d, The Gold Pinnatree,
e, The Golden Trinitie, g, is in danger from a Turkish galleon, a, f, g, a
Spanish, b, c (pirate Targalley), d, French, e. The captain of the English
ship promises the cabin-boy gold, fee, and daughter, if he will sink the
enemy. The boy has, and uses, an auger, to bore two holes at twice, a,
that bores twenty holes in twice, b, to bore two holes at once, c; a case of
instruments, ca’s fifty holes and drives them a’ at once, e; an instrument,
and bores nine holes in her water-sluice, f; an auger fitted for the use,
and bores in her bottom a watery sluice, g. The master will not take him
on board, will kill him, shoot him, sink him, a-d; will not keep his
bargain, ‘for as you’ve done to her, so would you do to me,’ e (compare
the threat in B 13). The boy is taken up by his mess-mates and dies on
the deck, a, c, d; is sewed in a cow-hide and thrown overboard, a, c-g; in
b sinks from exhaustion and drowns.

 Then up starts our little cabin-boy,
Saying, Master, what will you give me if I do them destroy?
‘I will give you gold, I will give you store,
You shall have my daughter when I return on shore,
If ye sink them in the Low Lands Low.’

3
The boy bent his breast and away he jumpt in;
He swam till he came to this Turkish galleon,
As she laid on the Low Lands Low.

4
The boy he had an auger to bore holes two at twice;
While some were playing cards, and some were playing dice,
He let the water in, and it dazzled in their eyes,
And he sunk them in the Low Lands Low.

5
The boy he bent his breast and away he swam back again,
Saying, Master take me up, or I shall be slain,
For I have sunk them in the Low Lands Low.

6
‘I’ll not take you up,’ the master he cried;
‘I’ll not take you up,’ the master replied;
‘I will kill you, I will shoot you, I will send you with the tide,
I will sink you in the Low Lands Low.’

7
The boy he swam round all by the starboard-side;
They laid him on the deck, and it’s there he soon died;
Then they sewed him up in an old cow’s-hide,
And they threw him overboard, to go down with the tide,
And they sunk him in the Low Lands Low.

famous ship called The Sweet Trinity was taken by a false
gally, and how it was again restored by the craft of a little sea-
boy, who sunk the galley: as the following song will declare.
To the tune of The Sailing of the Low-land.

Then awa, and awa, and awa swam he,
Till he swam back to.

An ye na throw me oer a rope an ye na pull me up aboard,

There was an auncient ship, and an auncient ship was she,
Eee eedle ee, in the Lowlands so low
And the name of the ship was The Golden Vanitie.
As she sailed from the Lowlands so low

2
She had not sailed a league, no, not a league but three,
Until that shee spied a French galley.

‘It’s master, O master, what’ll ye gie me,
If I go and sink yon French galley?’

4
O then said the master, I will gie till ye
The half of my lands in the South Countrie.

‘It’s I’ll gie ye meat, and I’ll gie ye fee,
And my eldest daughter your bride for to be.’

‘It’s wrap me up tight in a gude bull’s-skin,
And throw me over deck-board, sink I or swim.’

7
So they wrapt him tight in a gude bull’s-skin,
And they’ve thrown him over deck-board, sink he or swim.

8
And about, and about, and about went he,
Until that he came to the French galley.

9
It’s some were playing at cards, and some were playing at dice,
But he struck her with an instrument, bored thirty holes at twice.

 Some ran wi hats, and some ran wi caps,
All for to stop the salt-waters draps.
As they, etc.

When she hove in sight of a French galley.

And they’ve thrown him overboard, let him sink or swim.
