  1. (continued from previous page)
    The zeal of these Fathers rejoices the soul
    The zeal of these Fathers gives the spirit control
    The zeal of these Fathers brings down all the light
    From the heavenly kingdom where the founder shines bright
    III
    May our pastors then join us to sing Glory on high
    For that our faith and our love brought us to Jesus so nigh
    To dwell everlasting in his happy abode
    So dearly bought for us on a cruel calvery road

A man came there and he saw a woman washing clothes in the well, the morning after the well was removed over near Maloe. The print of the woman's knees is near the well where she knelt down to wash the clothes. There is a song written about St Maloes well. I
    I often drank water out of St Maloes well, In it's clear water there lurks a bright spell.
    The afflicted go there to find ease from there woe.
