Thread Name: Tune Req: Execution of Michael Fagan
Subject: Execution of Michael Fagan
I'm trying to find an air for the song/poem entitled
Words Written on the Execution of Michael Fagan

The first verse is as follows:

Thrice has the English hangman sailed thro' Dublin Bay
Each visit's been to take the life of some doomed man away
Joe Brady and Dan Curley they have journeyed on before
Michael Fagan has today gone forth to seek Jehovah's shore.

Any advice as to what air to use would be very gratefully received.

Pat 'de Verse' Burke.
