That my old bitter heart was pierced in this black doom, That foreign devils have made our land a tomb, That the sun that was Munster’s glory has gone down Has made me a beggar before you, Valentine Brown.
Egan O'Rahilly Quotes
For the future I cease, Death approaches with little delay, Since the dragons of Laune and Lane and Lee are destroyed; I’ll follow the heroes far from the light of day, The princes my ancestors followed before Christ died.
