  1. File-na-Thaida
    by David Keohan
    _______________
    I.
    O steep File-na-Thaida, let grandeur renew
    Thy battlement cliffs where the ages review
    The storm so majestic; the tempest so proud;
    Their terrors unchained and their fury so loud
    Where lightning the anger of Heaven reveals
    And thunder is crashing in deafening peals;
    Where gales fiercely howl and the elements weep,
    While mountainous billows roll in from the deep.
