- (continued from previous page)Is well worthy of esteem
And with poetic beauties
Abundantly doth teem
Commands a view of sweet Tervoe
And Limerick's ship-crowned dock
While the lordly Shannon sweeps below
The base of Carrig's rockFrom its lofty top no objects stop
Your view for miles around
Where nature's lavish beauties
Luxuriantly abound
The meadows green below are seen
And the rich and roaming stock
Where the Maigue's deep bed a silver thread
Flows on by Carrig Rock.Its scenery you'd love to see

When the golden sun sinks down to rest

The pheasant, hare and cock
And rabbits quick are very thick
Round Carrig's stately rockContd.(continues on next page)
