  1. St Brigid's Well

    Share Share Post
    There is not in my travels a scenery so sweet.
    As the hill in whose bosom the pilgrims do meet.
    The dear running brook through the graveyard can tell.
    And of the grand waterfall near St. Brigid's Well.
    When you visit this well if you are inclined.
    You'll see the grand monument of Corneluis O'Brien.
    He was a high sheriff and also M.P.
    And he fought against Erin and sweet liberty.
    The hills most beautiful scenery you'll see.
    Ennistymm : Lehinch and sweet Miltown Malbay.
    The great cliffs of Moher the traveller can tell.
    And the beautiful scenery round St Brigid's Well.
