- Wild are thy hills, O Donegal, that growing darkly rise
As if to greet the mist that falls upon them from the skies;
Dark, dark thy hills and darker still thy mountain torrents flow,
But darker still Maolmuire's heart in his Castle Hall at Doe.Stout are thy oaks, O Donegal, and straight thy ashen tree,
And swift and strong thy sons so tall thy country's pride to see;
But oak or ash or young men all that sprung from Irish soil,
Were not more stout, swift, straight and tall than the chief of Clan O'Boyle.(continues on next page)- Collector
