On a leisure hour by a shady bower[?]
In a rambling tour as I gave a bound
To those glens so charming
That gaze each morning on fair Castle BrownII
I walked around it and then I viewed it
On upon its summit there I had seen
A crown far greener than the vales of Limerick
With Erins emblem the Shamrock greenIII
But as I view its crumbling structure
By whom the cursed Saxon did on it frown
I mean Cromwell with his ancestors
and his predicessors who tore it downIV
It is to day the ruins of a British tyrant
Who got it torn by an alien crew
But in former years it belonged to Desmonds
They were Irish Princes after Brian Boru(continues on next page)- Collector
