   I
   Old Sríonáin was once a wood
   Where ash and oak profusely grew,
   In those days now long ago
   When roads or paths were but a few,
   But a path was cut from the Great House
   Down by an ancient rath,
   From which the place derived its name
   Sríonáin or bridle path.
   II
   Upon a hill there stood a tower
   It stood there many a day,
   That it was built by Captain Lloyd
   Is what the legend say.
   He built it as a signal tower
   That all his friends might know,
   When the flag flew high he was at home,
   But away when it flew low.
   III
   In later years, when roads were built
   And all the woods cut down,
   When the ancient trees once waved and swayed
   Were fields and "hamlets" brown
   ''Twas then they say that for the sake
   Of the old tower on the hill,
   They changed the name of old Sríonáin
   And called the place Towerhill.
