- (continued from previous page)You rise not from your slumber
With voice as loud as thunder
To grant us some relief!"
- ISlowly and sadly one night in November,
As I laid my weary head down to repose
On a pillow of straw which I long can remember,Being weary for sleep I fell into a daze
Tired from working hard down in a felon's yard
Night brought relief to my well tortured frame
Locked in a prison cell surely an earthly hell
I fell asleep and began for to dreamIII dreamt that I stood on a hill in Green Erin
Praying and meditating on her victories won
Surrounded by foemen no enemy fearing
"Stand" was the cry every man to his gun(continues on next page) - Collector
