Excerpt from Poems and Ballads of Young IrelandBecause you suffered for the cause, Because you strove with voice and pen To serve the Law above the laws That purifies the hearts of men, Because you failed, and grew not slack, Not sullen, not disconsolate, Nor stooped to seek a lower track, But showed your soul a match for Fate, Because you hated all things base, And held your country's honour high, Because you wrought in Time and Space Not heedless of Eternity, Because you loved the nobler part Of Erin, so we bring you here Words such as once the nation's heart On patriot lips rejoiced to hear: Strains that have little chance to live With those that Davis' clarion blew.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
