ERIN.
0 Daughter of the King! What dreams have shone In eyes enchanted by the loveliness of thee! Thy beauty is not earthly, nor the sea As boundless as the yearning urging on The lovers haunted by thy lips so wan— Thy knight's who gave their lives to make thee free. Adown the years they died; but oh, ma chree! Our feet are walking where their feet have gone. 0 Daughter of the King ! "What spell hast thou That time nor sorrow dims thy royal brow - ; ■■ That never shone more radiantly than now? 0 Daughter of the King! Not vain have been Brave failures and the anguish of thy caoine; Thou shalt arise and reign our Queen, our Queen! J.K.
