A Song
“Tis grand to sit at eventide, and view the Castle grove, 'Tis sweeter far in Summer time, Their shady paths to rove.”
I
'Tis grand to sit at eventide, and view the Castle grove,
'Tis sweeter far in Summer time,
Their shady paths to rove;
I've travelled most the south of France,
The Alps I did explore.
Of beauty rare they have their share,
But cannot touch Lismore.II
The Black-water flows so sweetly on.
To swell the deep, blue sea.
It's beauteous course for miles around,
Is hidden by killree.
Hark! rustling noise, what's that I hear?
Is it the "aba na Sead."
A stroll along the lover's walk.(continues on next page)- Collector
