  2. McKenna's Dream

    Share Share Post
    One night of late
    I chanced to stray
    When all the green
    In slumber lay
    And Morfis did his flag display.
    The moon sank in the deep.
    I sat upon a ruined mound.
    To hear the wild winds
    Whistle sound
    The ocean with a solemn sound
    Soon lulled me fast asleep.
    I dreamt I saw
    That hero true
    Who did the Danish force subdue.
    His sabre bright
    With rath he drew
    These words he said to me.
    The harp with rapture
    Yet shall sound
    My childrens chains
