    (continued from previous page)
    Where the sweet woodline wreath the white thorn and rose
    Where I plucked long ago Blackberry and fraochan
    With my cheery companions at day's dusty close
    Yes, dearly beloved are the scenes of my boyhood
    And those are heart memories that care cannot kill.
    The school by the stream and my cot by the wildwood.
    And daisy decked meadows around "Faughan hill"
