lapse of centuries, have power to thrill
US to our bosom's core.
1t was before this Council Of Tara
that st. Patrick appeared, preaching
the glory of the Christian religion, and
it was the leader of the bards, Dubhac,
that arose and exclaimed: tOh We
kings and men of Erin This man
speaks the glory of the true God, and
this harp of mine shall never reSOund
again save unto the praises of Pat
rick'S God" After Christianity was
introduced into Ireland the art of
music flourished more than ever, for
not only did the bardg increase in
number, but they taught their art to
the countless monks, who used it in
singing increasingly the praises of God.
And it was taught in the great schools,
for Ireland was then the island of
scholars, and many a student from for
eign shores caught up our exquisite
melodies and carried them to his own
country. King Alfred of Northumber-
land and who distinguished himself by
a concert he once gave on a harp, was
one of these. So famous were the Irish
bards that the king of Scotland and
Nay, the kings of Ireland were them
selves sometimes bards, and Brian
Boru, the greatest of her kings, was
one of the greatest OF her bards. So
powerful did the bards become with
the people that the kings feared them,
and King Hugh formed the plan of en-
tirely abolishing the bardic corpora
ton. But through the efforts of ST.
Columboa, who was himself a bard of
the highest merit, the abuses of power
were eradicated and the threatened de-
struction averted. And because the
bards had so much influence with the
people that their songs sustained the
resistance to England. King Henry
VIII and Queen Elizabeth ordained
most severe laws against them. They
were forbidden to enter the English
pale; they were forbidden to sing their
national melodies, and finally orders
were given that all bardS were to be
executed. Queen Elizabeth said, 1--WE
can never conquer Ireland while the
bards remain" Yet so sweet was
their music that even the soldiers ap-
pointed to pursue and destroy them 4
would entertain them in their camps /
for the music they. furnished. As
Moore so beautifully says:
'The stranger shall be as they lament
on his plains;
The sight of thy harp shall be sent
DER the deep,
Till the masters themselves as they
rivet thy chains,
Shall pause at the song of their captive
and weep"
Amid all the years of bloodshed and
the bards slowly, but sure
ly, died out, and as the poet says:
The harp that once through Tara's halls
The soul of music shed.
Now hangs as mute on Taras walls
As if that soul were fed.
So sleeps the pride of former days,
So gIory's thrill is DER,
And hearts that once beat high for praise
Now feel that pulse no more!
No more to chiefs and ladies bright,
The harp of Tara swells
The chord alone that breaks at night,
Its tale of ruin tells.
Thus freedom now so seldom wakes
The only throb she gives
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1900-03-24
