   II
   With ecstasy I went my way down by a limpid stream,
   Where bowers o'erhung the rivulet - most captivating scene!
   The pheasant song was borne along the partial evening gale,
   That faintly wafted to mine ear - the name of Granuaile.

   III
   With fawn-like steps I shyly crept beneath the verdant shade.
   Some persons there were speaking, when a female rose and said,
   "Your conduct bold I do behold; your courage did not fail,
   My gallant sons with pikes and guns, for I'm poor Granuaile!"

   'Midst the surges of the battle-blaze on that eventful day,
   Through fire and smoke the Celtic stroke made Scully's corps give way.
   Murrough and the bailiff fell victims to the hail
   That bursted from the rifles of the sons of Granuaile.

   V
   My progeny is true to me, except a few of those,
   Of reptiles' seed, or Cromwell's breed would aggravate my woes
   But now I swear, and do declare, to yon I will reveal,
   My gallant sons with Irish guns, for I'm poor Granuaile.
