HONOR THE BRAVE

AoNoN IL T. DhtA ' II.
l'These ignorant aud savage rioters should
know that the whole military force now
available within the United Kingdom, in

Honor the brave who battle still
For Irish right ia English lands
No rule excep, their quenrhless will,
No power save ia their IL ked haud.,
WAC wage by day, and wage by night,
In groups of three or bands of leu,
One savage, undespairing fight
Against two hundred thousand men.
No pomp Of war their eyes TO blind,
No hlare Of music as they 90,
With just such weapons as they find,
In desperate onset on the foe.
They seize the pike, the torch, tie scyth,

Who fell in Freedoms fght-and then,
With teeth frm-set, and breathing fast.

Yet never knights in Arthur's DAYS
For desperate cause made frmer stand

NO gloves for those who have as foes
