    What means the vast and solid throng,
    With faces full of care.
    Oh! Did we come to caoin the dead,
    Or join in the midnight prayer.
    Far different is our errand now,
    And eh: How great a shock
    With heavy hearts and blistered heels
    We'll seek the Skelligs Rock.
    A comely maid I then did spy,
    With her light hair flowing free
    And by her side her only pride
    Mick Kelliher of Aubee.
