  1. An Unpublished Song

    “By the Vulcan beams of Flora As I rose one pleasant morn, Just as the hounds and horn Awake the frighted fawn...”

    I
    By the Vulcan beams of Flora
    As I rose one pleasant morn,
    Just as the hounds and horn
    Awoke the frighted fawn,
    The lark, she shook her wing
    And turned her note so charming -
    There is none but Jehovah
    Can open the day's dawn.
    I viewed with great pleasure
    The charming nine acres above Eady's
    And the splendid young nurseries
    In their majestic station .....
    And the rippling, pure Spring water,
    That flows from the top of Teadies,
    Which gives such consolation
    To my native Enniskean

    Where the speckled trout are playing
    While its golden streams run
