Let poets sing of beauty spots in foreign climes so grand,
Of towering rocky mountains or the scenes in Switzerland,
Of babbling brooks and shady nooks which are the Saxon pride,
And Scotia's praise of lofty peaks and chain of lakes beside.
But for a healthy holiday theirs none but will agree
The hills south of Drumkeeran for beauty hold the Key,
Wild nature here sure has the sway with streamlets rushing down,
While white washed homes enhance the view of the hills above the town. If you want a warm welcome
Then knock at any door,
From Litter to the Colliery,
There's failte there go leor,
They'll seat you near the fire

All, all he observes would excite his emotion,
The friends of his childhood may be but a few
I would go to Killarney so far famed in story
The wonders of nature to feast to mine eyes
I would hasten to Muckross whose monastic glory
Weigh back in the ages no sceptic denied.

The grave of Queen Scotia far up in the mountains
Well named "Gleann Scoithín I would ramble to see
I would then wander back and I'd sip at the fountain
And stand on the "Beautiful Vale of Tralee"
The scholar and pilgrim have oftentimes prayed there
'Tis where gold St. Brendan now peacefully lie

I thought to escape her but onwards I strayed.
For Cupid & Venus had so wantonly teased me ["tused" in margin]
To an arbour conveyed me where sat this Dear Irish Maid

The Sol began beaming as we retrograded
To adjust my Mazes to a place more remote.
For to shun speculators and perambulators.
Who often came pleading to those eglantine groves.
Those copious plantations & beauties so serious
Have so re-engaged me each hour of this day.
That I roved out more careless led on by Dame Nature
So excuse the frailties of the plain Irish Maid

Are you Silvie, Paromas. Siege Palas or Flora.
Hibernia or Scotia or what is your name.
Or are you famed Juno or bright shining Luno
Or are you a human of Adam's Great Race.
If you are my dear creature of commissuration
Keep balm to my ailment & free me from pain
For you have captivated all my fondest sensations
And made me a slave to you my charming fair maid
VI.
I guessed her not Venus [?] or Helen
Pandora, [?] or fair [?].
Her dress appeared rural as she sat there amusing
By a meandering Brook that most rapidly glides
