V
You would travel through all Ireland
Still you would never see
A place to equal Furnace
No matter where it be
VI
To look down on the Shannon
Which enchants this townland
And see its rippling waters
Flow down below the land
VII
And see reflected in its surface
The trees that proudly grow
Along the shores of Furnace
Where the River Shannon Flows.
- My own townland :- Gubagraphy
Not far from the village of Dromod
There is a pretty townland
Although its not exceedingly large
I tell you it suits us grand
