Subject: RE: Gaughan on the nature of 'Tradition'
I ran two lines into one in the last verse but one there - it should be:

Ah, lad's for Ireland's cause we fought For homes and sire we bled, Tho pikes were fed, still our hearts beat true, And five to one lay dead, But many a lassie mourned her lad, And mother mourned her boy; For youth was strong in that gallant throng, Who followed Henry Joy.
