   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)

   They ponder in amazement while on it they are gazing
   And homeward, when retracing they view it again
   There is banqueting and feasting by nobles grand and statesmen
   In all their variations from eve until dawn
   With the greatest acclamation much merriment they are making
   And singing simultaneously the praises of Drishane.

2. Poet Aherne

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   His name was Con Aherne of Ballinagree. He lived about the Famine times when the people died of hunger. He was an uneducated peasant and got the power to compose songs and poems by falling asleep on a stone in the river Laune.

   One day he was working in a field near the river and he got tired and he went into the river and sat down on a fine smooth stone there and fell asleep. When he awakened he was able to compose and his first song was the praises of Drishane. He was also the Author of "In Sweet Donoughmore". He also made a song about a fox hunt

   The Muskerry sportsmen assembled one day
   On the borders of Ryecourt both sprightly and gay.
