    Poem.
    The West is now eclipsed in
    mourning
    For the bravest is laid in
    the tomb
    The death Commandent Marren
    has cast over Connaught
    a gloom.
    He fought for the cause of
    old Ireland
    And evaded arrest for five
    years
    Beloved by all his companions
    and the pride of the
    bold Volunteers.
    Brave Marren loved his dear
    country
    With a love that ne'er be surpassed
    A hero! also a brave leader
