  1. (no title) (continued)

    One evening as I wandered by the setting of the sun, to view the scenes of my youthful days, when my heart was light and young.

    (continued from previous page)
    are gone for evermore.
    VII
    The companions of my youthful days,
    are long since gone to rest,
    I hope their souls are shinning now
    among the pure and blest.
    VIII
    I feel my time is getting short,
    And days they are but few,
    Unto dear old Ballyloskey, I soon must
    bit adieu.
