Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poets and Poetry of Munster: A Selection of Irish Songs by the Poets of the Last Century, With Metrical Translations
The olden Tongue is sinking, like a patriarch to rest, Whose youth beheld the T yrian on our Irish coasts a guest, Ere the Roman or the Saxon, the Norman or the Dane, Had first set foot in Britain, o'er trampled heaps of slain.
