For the SENTINEL.
OUT OF THE DEPTHS.

Poor Erin, of all graces thou hast been lonI
bereft,
And signs and tears and grosns alone are 81
that thou hast left.
To sAvo thee from his wretched fate. has
thou within thy walls
One noble son to whom thy state for vindics
ton calls?
Within thy desolated space what voice In
answering tone
Gives back the sound of saving grace which
Freedom makes thine own
What soul responds to Freedoms light, whef
once her star shall beam
On fair Erena's landscape bright Ger noun
and vale and stream?
| Yes, one there Ia whose ~faintest breath vibratei
the echoing sound,
And sends it laundering on the breeze through
all the regions round.
From wicklow's murmuring waterfalls thu
answering cry is heard,
The eagle whom she nursed awhile shall bt
the soaring bird.
Oh. grant him Simpsons towering strength
and David's skill in fight.
And Hector's dauntless courage blent with
Michsel's angel might.
And grid him with the flaming sword. which
guards the Tree Of Life.
That he with weapon thus divine may quickly
end the strife.
fear may fall.
And every tongue that bondage praised may
filter drops of gall;
And every heart that answers not the thrilling
fame that burns
On Freedoms altar sacred spot be doomed to
Eblis' urns.
May losthsome reptiles round IL crawl and
Shiny serpents hiss,
And all the demons on 1t fall for craven
thoughts like this.
May every foul nocturnal bird upon its vitala
prey,
And every evil spirit herd around 1t night and
day.
May dark despair Its portion be. and poisoned
stings of hate.
And all the venomous things that be, upon II
cesseless wait.
But he who Joins the patriot band devoted to
Our cause.
Shall win unending deathless fame-a nations
loud applause.
May every good that life can yield around his
pathway grow
The need Of praise which heroes get all men
on him bestow.
Immortal ssges trace his name In thrilling
lines of fire,
Undue the coming ages with rsptures OF
desire.
To emulate the heroic deeds Of Parnell's sacred
band.
And wish 1t might have been their fate to lend
g helping hand.
The greatest loss their lives may know is. that
that they lived too late
To help that brave, immortal chief to free his
noble State.
Arisel o'Connell's spirit. and from the silent
tomb
Roll back the stone of tyranny that sealed
your country's loom.
Arisel arisel His countrymen. Your motto
"Do or die"
Be worthy of the names ye besr-mAke Righ'
your battle cry.
Be death to every tyrant who dwelis within
your land.
Leave hydra-headed bigotry nc place upoI
your strand.
Give every man q perfect right to chose hi
mode OF faith:
The only crown your kings should wear woult
be 9 laurel wreath.
Arise, and float your anner DER church AM
fort and wall;
The sunburst fame OF Liberty fash fortl
from hut and hall;
Undue the peasant tensntry with Freedom
sacred fire,
And teach your tyrant landlords to huma'
rights aspire.
Nor selfish greed. nor lust of gold, their futur
lives may sway,
For human rights and human love We hail tn
coming day.
To raise you from the depths Of woe tw
saviors have arisen.
Go blszon forth their sacred names before tn
highest heaven.
| For Gladstone twine immortal wreathes Q
bays
All nations join In sounding PArnell's praise
