Book Description
Excerpt from The Four Winds of Eirinn Poems The voice of the singer is silenced, the heart is stilled, the hand grown cold, and the loveful eyes are closed for evermore. A light has been quenched in Eirinn: another hope has gone under the green sod. She that sang these songs, and died - with a song on her lips, and youth's bloom still on her cheeks - sang, as does the lark, because her heart, always filled with happiness and love, delighted to spill in melody upon the earth its overflowing joys. For, a kind God had compressed into her short years more exuberant happiness than is usually bestowed in a long life.
