   IX
   Shooting on by lonely Rathlin skins a currach on the sea.
   And it shineth like a snow-flake when the queen is on the lea
   Rests a bird with crests engoldened where the wind-gusts gently stream-
   'Tis the angel-pilot watching the fulfilment of a dream.

   And there sit within vessel, with their faces to the land,
   Long white beards and eyes of beauty looking back- a silent hand;
   From the green hills of their country, fairy streams and mountains gray,
   On the service of their master they are voyaging away.
   XI
   'Farewell' - farewell to Eire - Land, They will be done on earth,"
   Sang they to the shining hillow with celestial voice of mirth;
   But their brows grow white as marble and a sadness filled their song.
   As they heard no more the voices in the hallowed walls of Cong.
