A Song (continued)
“The follwoing was composed by Peter Goeden of Thornaghough (Nephew to John Tom Gleeson of sam black who was also a poet)”
(continued from previous page)Old hills upon bleak native meadows
Oh, you are far more dear to me
To wish in valour with beauty equal
Than all that beauty that here I see
Those city sights may be grand and glowing
But on what rapture my heart inflicts
Or would I fancy these breezes blowing
Across the dear old Baggina(?) hills.- Informant
