T. J. Keating,
Brookhill,
Fethard
Co. Tipp.I
Where the grey Calshawly glides,
And th bashful "Crickeen" hides,
There's my heart for aye abides
My Native Fethard.
II
Those grand old walls that silent stand.
To mark dark ere in our land,
Crumbling not to Cromwell's hand -
Staunch walls of Fethard.

Scenes that childish footsteps daunt,
Pitch-black aisles which ogres haunt,
My weird old Fethard.(continues on next page)- Informant
