FIORENZO 1805. Awarded to Captain Henry Lambert of HMS St Fiorenzo for his bravery and skill in the capture of the French frigate Psyche. Captain Henry Lambert entered the Royal Navy at a young age in 1795 aboard HMS Cumberland and served on various vessels throughout his career. Promoted to Lieutenant in 1801, thereafter in 1803 promoted to Commander of HMS Wilhemina. In 1804, he encountered the French frigate Psyche for the first time, leading a brave and successful attack despite significant damage to the Wilhemina. He was rewarded for his courage with promotion to Captain of HMS St Fiorenzo in 1805, whereupon he came upon the Psyche for the second time and succeeded in capturing her. Commander in Chief Peter Rainier wrote to the Admiralty at the time "....I cannot help expressing myself much pleased with the animated and spirited resolution taken by Captain Lambert, for renewing the attack, which was only prevented by victory. All the trading part of his Majesty's subjects throughout India, rejoice on the occasion of this capture, as being more apprehensive of depredations on their trade from Captain Bergeret's abilities and activity, than from the whole remaining force of the French navy at present in these seas united." It was for this action that he received this presentation sword. Lambert died in 1813 during the War of 1812 where on 29th December 1812, as Captain of HMS Java, he again courageously attacked the much larger USS Constitution in the hope of at least disabling her. He was shot by a musket ball and died six days later in Salvador, Brazil. Lieutenant Chads wrote at the time "...the country has lost a most gallant and valuable officer, and myself (who have served under his command some years), the officers, and crew, a kind friend." and later "...the skill and determined bravery of my beloved captain, will be most conspicuous, and that in this last action of his life, although success has not crowned his exertions, his character will be unsullied and his memory honored and revered." Lambert's action to capture the Psyche in the St Fiorenzo is immortalized in Edward Orme's 1806 engraving after John Heaviside Clark and also characterized in Patrick O'Brian's "Aubrey-Maturin" series. In 1813 George Wrattislaw of Magdalen College Oxford wrote the following: "A gentle spirit, yet a dauntless heart, "Where worth and valor claim'd an equal part; "In whom the hero, friend, and husband shone "And all the virtues mingled into one; "Whose every action spoke an honest zeal, "And foremost in his thoughts his country's weal; "Such once was Lambert: - once the good and brave, "Now sunk, alas I in glory's honor'd grave; "While the lone Mourner, in her widow'd state, "Bewails the sad severity of fate; "And the rough seaman wets his manly eye, "Where, cold in death, the hero's ashes lie; "Or, as he sighing, quits the fatal shore, "Turns his last ling'ring look to 'Salvador.'"
