    Poem by Mr. MacMahon
    In Tipperary's fair County
    for tillage + grass
    Between the old Rock of
    Cashel, and Famed Holycross
    Clonoulty's fair parish in
    splendour doth shine
    With pride claims the
    birthplace of Archbishop Ryan
    It was there he beheld
    the first joys of his heart
    Which caused him to mourn when he had to part
    Around Cloneyharp
    castle he played as a youth.
    Until he got a call from
    the Author of Truth
