- With my rod and line in the Summer time
As the shades of night gave way
I hiked along 'mid a wealth of song
From each leafy bough and spray
By that castle old where Mc Cachara bold
Kept Saxon hordes at bay
And the calm Brogeen sang the nights requiem
At the dawning of the day.

And the seanachie told tales of glee
Of love and the chase and the fray
