- (Irish verse on the little mothers rosary)
"Theris [?] the same dear happy circle round the fires cheery blaze,
with the little Irish mother telling tales of other days."
"She had one sweet Holy, which I never can forget and a gentle Benediction crowns her (mother) memory for it yet".
"I can see the little mother still hear her as she pleads.
Not its getting on to bedtime, All you children get your beads."
There were no steel bound conventions in that old slab dwelling face,
Only this - she lined us up each night to say the Rosary."
