"Au 31 du mois d’août" (On the 31st of August) is a French sailors song and a drinking song. It was written in the 19th century and is inspired by the capture of the "Kent" (a British Three-Masters) by the famous privateer Robert Surcouf and his crew aboard "La Confiance" (corvette). The exploit lies in the difference of the forces in presence, the English being more numerous, with more guns of better manufacture.
