    But a storm of wind and rain caught the bold Clifford Lloyd
    But a storm of wind and rain caught the bold Clifford Lloyd
    The lightening took no bail for it struck his coat of mail
    And as dead as a door nail fell the bold Clifford Lloyd.
    The above poem was composed by a teacher in Miltown named Miss Frost. On that account she was dismissed and went to live in Kilmaley near the present P.P's house. She afterwards lived somewhere in Ennis.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
