“How come the deep furrow mark visible still.”
I
How come the deep furrow mark visible still.
When gorse, broom, and fern wave high on the
hill,
Ask yonder aged peasant he'll tell you twas made,
Ere the country was swept by the Tighearna Dubh's
raid

And what mean those mossed stones where crouches the
hare,
Here never rose fabric for strength or for prayer,
T'was a hamlet they'll tell you whose rude stories were
laid.
While the land was in peace ere the Tighearna Dubh's
raid.

The Tighearna Dubh's raid they remember it yet,
How deeply past wrongs in memory are set.
Good seems written on water while suffering or crime.(continues on next page)- Collector
