            <text>THE DESERTER'S MEDITATION&#13;
If sadly thinking with spirits sinking&#13;
Could more than drinking my cares compose,&#13;
A cure from sorrow from sighs I'd borrow,&#13;
In hope to-morrow would end my woes.&#13;
But as in wailing there's nought availing&#13;
And Death unfailing will strike the blow.&#13;
Then for that reason and for a season&#13;
Like us be merry before we go.&#13;
&#13;
To joy a stranger a well-worn ranger&#13;
In every danger my course I've run;&#13;
Now hope all ending and Death befriending&#13;
His last aid ending my cares are done.&#13;
No more a rover or hapless lover,&#13;
My griefs are over - my glass runs low&#13;
Then for that reason and for a season&#13;
Let us be merry before we go.&#13;
	John Philpot Curran.&#13;
&#13;
A TREASON SONG&#13;
I planted a Garden of the Laurel so fine&#13;
In hopes to preserve it for a True-love of mine,&#13;
By some treason or violence the roots did decay&#13;
And I'm left here to mourn for my Darling's delay.&#13;
&#13;
This garden's gone wild for the want of good seed,&#13;
There's nought growing in it but the outlandish weed,&#13;
Some nettles and briers and shrubs of each kind,&#13;
Search this Garden all over not a true plant you'll find.&#13;
&#13;
In one of these gardens a Violet doth spring,&#13;
'Tis preserved by a Goddess for the brow of a King.&#13;
It blooms in all seasons and it's rare to be seen&#13;
And none shall behold it but a Prince or a Queen.&#13;
&#13;
I'll send for a Gardener to France or Spain,&#13;
Who'll cultivate these gardens and slow the true Grain;&#13;
Who will banish these nettles and wild weeds away,&#13;
Make a total destruction of them night and day.&#13;
&#13;
This garden's invaded this many a year&#13;
By hundreds and thousands of the outlandish deer,&#13;
With their horns extended they have overgrown,&#13;
They thought to make old Ireland for ever their own.&#13;
&#13;
I will send for a Hunter who soon will arrive&#13;
With a stout pack of Beagles to hunt and to drive&#13;
Over Highlands and Lowlands, through cold frost and snow,&#13;
No shelter to shield them wherever they go.&#13;
&#13;
And now to conclude and to finish my song,&#13;
May the Lord send some Hayro, and that before long.&#13;
May the Lord send some Hayro of Fame and Renown,&#13;
We'll send George to Hanover and O'Connell we'll crown.</text>
