   The Old Walls of Liscarroll.

   Those ruined old walls those grand old walls.
   In stately splendour stand.
   Their name historic ranks among the proudest in the land.
   For there it was that heroes fought, and fell in fredom's.
   cause.
   In by - gone days when Erin groaned neath cruel.
   English laws.
   When despots came with fire, and steel to desecrate our land.
   The Celtic race to extirpate with dark, and fierdish [?] hand.
   How nobly our forefathers returned the onslaught then.
   With daring might, and chivaldry like heroic gallant men.
   Yes: Carroll's fort defiantly o'erlooks the plain with pride.
   Lifting its grand battlements above the green hillside.
   As towards devious Allows banks, it peers o'er Killinane.
   It seems and Irish Drachenfell beside an Irish Rhine.
   How nobly then that bulwark rears giant like on the rock.
   That castle that in centuries withstood the battles shock.
   From Sunfort Hill I see them still in glory, and in pride.
   Those ne'er to be forgotten walls where our forefathers died.
   Those ruined Old Walls those grand Old Walls.
   Bespeak a mournful tale.
