“Oh, where Kincora! are thy valourus lords...”

Oh, where Kincora! are they valourus lords,
Oh, whither, thou Hospitable are they gone?
Oh, where are the Talcassions of the Golden Swords?
And where are the warriors Brian led on?

Who swam down the torrent and laughed at its move
Where Oh Kincora- Collector
