text:
Five ships of the Royal Navy have been named HMS Halcyon. The term Halcyon originates from the Greek myth of Alcyone and means golden or marked by peace and prosperity. The first HMS Halcyon was the French 16-gun brig-sloop Alcyon, which HMS Narcissus captured in 1803; Halcyon was broken up 1812.
The second HMS Halcyon (1813) was an 18-gun Cruizer-class brig-sloop launched in 1813 and wrecked the following year in Jamaica.
The third HMS Halcyon (1894) was a Dryad-class torpedo gunboat in service
