    Bless him! No, now that word is oe'r
    My sweet one, thou canst bless no more.

    From Carriganassig shone that night
    Thro' storm and darkness many a light
    And loudy and noisy was the din
    Of some high revelry within
    At times was heard the warder's song
    Upon the night wind borne along
    And frequent burst upon the ear
    The merry soldiers' jovial cheer
    For their dark Chieftain in his hall
    That day held joyous festival
    And showed forth all his wealth and pride
    To welcome home his beateous bride
