- (continued from previous page)was noble John Mc Hale.Ah men will come and pass away.
Like raindrops in the sea,
And thrones will crumble to decay,
And kings forgotten be.
But through all time in every clime,
The children of the Gael.
Will praise the fame and
bless the name
of Glorious John Mc Hale. - The people have many weather signs:-
