    (continued from previous page)
    Irish sweetness to render,
    Their own beloved queen on the banks of the Lee.
    Like the virgin primroses,
    Beloved is her presence,
    As tenderly gentle and simple is she,
    May her beauty long bloom,
    In its seraphine essence,
    The joy of her home and the pride of the Lee.
