    it says: -
    “It was on that morning with Phoesus adorning,
    Enchanting and charming was Dernaved hill
    Where the blackbird and thrush sang on each blooming bush
    With a sweetness to make your heard thrill.”
    Another verse is :
    “But right away down on the verge of the county
    Where fair Favour Royal unfold its demesne
    Fair Cavanmoutray, I deem you the beauty
    Of all the loved natures that ever I’ve seen”
    An old saying about our own townland is : Where Ardguiney {Ardginny] is you’ll find the McKennas “
    The ground in our townland is hilly but produces good crops.
