I
One eve in the sweet Summer season.
All nature seemed charming to view,
I roved out for sweet recreation
When leisure left nothing to do
I roamed through a beautiful valley
through which a clear streamlet glides down,
To moisten the emerald region.

My rambling mind being uneasy, it freed me to wander along,
Until I arrived at the "Frolick",
Renowned both in story and song.
It stands on the rocks of old ages
There is a view of the country all round.
It's owned by our hero Tom Clery
The sportsman of old Lagganstown

that old burial place,
Where the true sons of gallant Tipperary,
Are sleeping in death's cold embrace(continues on next page)- Collector
