'But the youngest, he speaks out bold and clearly
I have no ties of children or of wife
Let me die, but spare mu brother,
Who is more dearly loved by me than life.'

Shall the years be when we are no more
And between them the years of a man
Are as wares the wind drives to the shore.'

Quote from Eamon de Valera transcribed by Robert Daly, Hut 14, Tintown No 3 Camp:

'Old scenes are apt to change
As time will age one's life
But remembrance is a tiny tack
Even thro years of strife.'
