    where both were detained until the Rebellion was crushed and Ireland's hope for freedom had received a disappointment - at least for a while.
    Jack Woods, the blacksmith, forged the pike, and better ne'er was made -
    An ashen handle, eight feet long, and four feet long the blade.

    And Pádraig Dubh caressed it as a lover would his bride.
