Killeevy, O Killeevy!

And his banshee's wail—now far and broken—

Murmur'd "Death," as he gave the token,

By the bonnie green woods of Killeevy.

"Adieu! adieu!" said this lady bright,

Killeevy, O Killeevy!

And she slowly passed like a thing of light,

Or a morning cloud, from Sir Turlough's sight,

By the bonnie green woods of Killeevy.

Now Sir Turlough has death in every vein,
