    (II)
    A king he cured of ulcer dread
    His ills and pains relieved
    A royal gift Bremore's broad Lands
    The gentle saint recieved.
    A church he built, he toiled and prayed
    And spread true wisdom's love
    His presence sanctified the scene
    Molaga of Bremore
    (III)
    And tho Lannbecher by the sea is crumbling in decay
    Molaga's name thro' famed Fingal.
    Is oft recalled today
    Balbriggan town its tribute pays
    To this great Saint of Love
    Its Hampton terrace bears his name
    Molaga of Bremore.
