  1. (continued from previous page)
    But it loves the best when comes again
    The witching howl of moonshine
    For there is wild glee when all is still
    When mortals are asleeping
    O'er glen and vale and druidic hill
    Fairies a dance are keeping
    VII
    Will-o'-the-wisp with his latern slide
    Gliding across the heather
    As blowing to the fairy kings bride
    The dance along to gether
    And the Banshee stills her lonely song
    To join the airy pleasure
    As the "Clooricaun" slips his slippers on
    A made to ordered measure
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
