   XXVII
   Home again - in noble Breffni - filled with yearning of the past,
   Stood I on Mullagh mountain as the sun's last line was east.
   And I thought upon the evening far away in Germany
   When my ears drank in the story which the woodman told to me.
   XXVIII
   Upward rose a peal of music. 'twas the Angelus was sung,
   And my pulse was thrilling wildly at the bell's celestial tongue,
   For the dreams of years of childhood came upon my heart again,
   And the wanderer's heart was soothed by the calm and silvery strain.
   XXIX
   'Twas a fairy land of echoes for full many a league around
   Swelled that song in strains responsive to the first awakening sound,
   And like purple clouds in summer gathering round the mountain's crest,
   So the past with all its memories closed around my saddening breast.
