“The following verses were written about the year 1824...”
(continued from previous page)Then, let us, my friends be united
In the side of the Seanrog so green.My brethren be calm, still and steady
Act manly, courageous and true
If occasion calls on you to be ready
And fall on the merciless crew.
Dire vengeance grime death and confusion
May widely expand o'er the scene
Of tyrants' foul blood in profusion
That deluged the Shamrock so green.

“This poem was composed about the year 1827 about Daniel O'Connell.”
