    (continued from previous page)
    cleared away the sand
    "Ah me" said he this is the man that claimed young Charles land
    The shepherds gathered, brought him home his friends stood round the bier
    And down he went into the grave without one honest tear
    Said Ned This is the finish of every treacherous knave
    And now I've told you all I know of the Long Woman's Grave
    We rose and went towards the door the moon was shining bright
    The master said Good-bye to all I'll tell tell a tale next night.
    This poem was composed by P Fox Newry, written by Joe Rice Mullahatina and given by Sheila Rice Achameen
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
