Duah VIII.] TIGHMOKA. 347
Take Artho of hosts at thy side
To Tighmora of sounding waves ;
Put green Erin's kings in his sight,
Comely forms that raised fame of old ;
Xot forgetting the fallen in battle ; 550
Raise strains to the brave on the field ;
Let Caruill give voice to the lay ;
Let heroes round their steps have joy
In morn's mist by the winding hills.
My white sails to-morrow shall rise 555
Towards Selma of trees and towers,
And great streams that wandered through glens
Among the haunts of deer in mist."
