   of sweet Lough Fea.
   IV. On Lough Fea's banks I sat and watched till evening shadows fell
   My mind could think of nothing else but the girl I loved so well
   And lingering late to see the moon upon the waters play.
   So full of mirth and frolicsome like the maid of sweet Lough Fea
   V. In Lough Fea's banks I vigil keep amidst the woods so green
   For you my darling of my heart my charming gipsy queen
   In Erin I may live long yet, but if e'er my footsteps stray
   In foreign lands I'll ne'er forget the maid of sweet Lough Fea
   This song was recently published in the Dundalk Democrat under the Nom de plume 'Doohathy'. It was sent by my brother
   He had to make some changes in the wording but not in the context.
   The girl was Miss Glasby. The boy Miss Glasby married was Ronald Kerry and it is said that she often sang the song at parties in the presence of her husband.
