- (continued from previous page)Could you an equal get for him.
Alas! he's gone great Fr. Tom,
Now, may he rest in peace Amen.
Historic page in any age,
Could scarcely one like him insert.
Since St. Patrick's time that saint divine,
Who first our country did convert,
So now who can despise the land,
That did sent forth such men of fame,
Who fought with Brian in former days,
And freed their country from the Danes.
And now alas! the night got dark
And nothing then I could espy,
So up I got from where I sat,
And bid to Cairn Hill, goodbye.- Collector
