Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dermot O'brien, or the Taking of Tredagh: A Tale of 1649
But now another sound arose, faint and far, swelling up from the westward, on the wings of the gentle wind a strange, con fused, yet harmonious murmur. For a long time it continued rising and falling with the rise and fall of the breeze, scarcely distinguishable above the tinkling music of the river, and the fitful cadences of the air among the tree-tops, unless it were by something indescribable, save to those who have heard it, of wild, spirit-stirring, yet half-discordant music.
