- There is one pretty spot of land.
"Bove all the rest i prize.
Thats noted for young maidens bland.
And jovial hearted boys.
I see no place that can excel.
This spot that I adore.
And with pride I mean to give its name.
It's the Cross of Donoughmore.
II
It is indeed a dear old.
The fairest to be found.
Where topers of in Concert sat.
The tables circled around.
Mid festive revelry and song.
While midnight's clouds hung o'er.
And bear in mind such fun you'll find.
At the Cross of Donoughmore.
III
This dear old spot that I admire.
Is beauteous fresh and fair.
There youth have all that they desire.
Both fun and frolic there.
There holdday eve is spent in mirth.
As famed in days of yore.
By none debased by poetry praised.
The Cross of Donoughmore.(continues on next page)- Informant
