Written for The Irish Republic
Present and Future.
BY T. IRWIN, DUBLIN, IRELAND.
By a cottage safe eventide
An old man, withered and gray was he;
His son was resting at his side,
blooming bride upon his knee
Bright and low and lower yet the orbed day went down
before them
Deep and deeper yet away the world through starry dark
ness bore them.
And the father said:
"Thus the life light quits my soul,
Wears the radiant chain that bound me;
Toward the spectral depths I roll;
Woe is me, ah, bitter woe!
Son and daughter, must go,
Far from We, with naught around me
Save the starry dead.
Upon supreme summit bright,
Above paradisial star,
Three spirits, dazzled in the light
Of universes, gazed afar;
Rich and vast and richer STILL the radiant spaces spread
around them;
Wide and wider yet away the throbbing depths of Being
wound them;
And exclaimed the three:
"Death and fear for
Have vanished from spirits vision;
Space is ours from shore to shore,
From sun to sun existence teens
In endless gloried godlike Dreams
In realms of bliss and thoughts elysian;
Our home is now-Infnity."

Tells us of Freedoms coming |!
Oh! she's comingl
Freedoms coming!

Oh! she's coming
Freedoms coming!
Our long, dark travail done,
Let us welcome brilliant Freedom
All together, all as one
Stir the nations up and lead them;
Let us hasten, let us run
To our brothers quick, and lead them
Up to greet the rising sun
The dawn of coming Freedom
Arrayed in glory she is coming
Happy, chainless Freedom,
Our souls arise to greet her coming
Oh! God bless and speed her coming
