Book Description

Excerpt from Patriotic Sketches of Ireland, Written in Connaught, Vol. 2 In amore advanced period of existence, I became the resident of those scenes sa' cred to the airy images of my. Childhood's wonder; from whence tradition still sends forth her tale of interest; and where to the heated fancy, the genius of Ireland seems to droop over her silenced harp, and at intervals to snatch from its tremu lous chords, a strain, which like the mu sic of her own bards is sweet, though mournful to the soul.
