- Out from the stately woods of Truagh
McKenna rides at noon,
The sun shines brightly, not a cloud,
Darkens that sky in June.
No eye has he for nature's charms,
They don't delude his brain,
As by flower clad hills he wends his way,
And never draws a reign.
Till above him lay that old grey tower,
Of Glasslough Castle old,
And in it dwelt a damsel,
More dear to him than gold.(continues on next page)
