    (continued from previous page)
    In the time of every danger,
    Wexford took a noble part,
    Can the bonds of slavery change her,
    Will she show a craven's heart?
    No, by every link that binds us,
    To the bright but bloody past,
    Erin still shall ever find us,
    Slow but sure to win at last.
    iv
    Let the past direct and guide us,
    Let the present ever show,
    That no change can e'er divide us,
    Practice by the wily foe,
    Then once more let Wexford rally,
    And keep up the bloodless fight,
    Let each mountain, rock and valley,
    Ring with - Persevere ! unite.
