    (continued from previous page)
    I oft with glee, did launch our boat
    To glide the waters o'er.
    The same transparent little waves
    Doth ripple o'er thy breast,
    The same sween stillness haunts thy shore
    When nature seems to rest.
    5.
    O happy days, it is with awe,
    And with no little pain
    I think and know that those dear times
    Can never come again.
    By. E. Sefton

    E. Sefton also wrote a poem about a hill near Lorrha and the graveyard.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
