Thread Name: Lyr Req: 'But why should words my frenzy whet...'
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Find a 1916 IRA ballad
The author who quoted the ballad simply said that it was a popular ballad of the day. He was talking about the period between the 1916 Rising and the Irish Civil War. Unfortunately, he did not credit the song's composer.
