    was the cry".
    Edmond Stritch made a poem, lamenting his youth about Kerry Head: -
    "Let me go, let me go to wild Kerry Head,
    Where the days of my childhood so pleasantly fled;
    Let me chant to its wild cliffs where blackberries grow;
    To my home in wild Kerry again let me go!"
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
