          Quote from Pádraig Pearse transcribed by Pádraig Ó Catháin (Carlow), the Long Hut, Tintown Camp:

          'We know only one definition of freedom - it is Tone's definition, it is Mitchell's definition, it is Rossa's definition. Let no man blaspheme the cause which the dead generations of Ireland have served by calling it by any other name and definition, than by their name and definition.'

          Verse transcribed by Walter A. Mitchell (Rahan, Offaly), Hut 3, Tintown No.2 Camp:

          Just a greeting from a comrade
          Who lies in chains with you
          To show you that a gloomy past
          Did not our souls subdue
          May all the pleasures which this world
          To freeman's life, doth give
          Be yours in all your future days
          When slaves no more shall live.'

          Quote from a parody of Thomas Campbell's 'The Exile of Erin' transcribed by Liam Ó [Dulchaointigh], Tintown No 3 Camp, who ascribes this version to Rudyard Kipling:

          'There came to the beach a poor exile of Erin
          the dew on his thin robes was heavy and chill
          Ere the dust from his brogues he fully had shaken
          He was Member of Parliament introducing a Bill.

          Verses transcribed Padraic Ó Briain, Rath Camp:

          They lost! But O! They conquer
          These men who their land would save
          A firing party at break of day.
          And a tasty quick-lime grave.

          But think not of them with scorn
          Nor mourn for the cause they died
          This death saved Ireland's honour
          What mattered all else beside.

          We've been told twas a failure by those that ne'er understood
          How the new born soul of Erin was baptised in martyrs' blood
          And to all who crave for freedom, as the world its
          meaning know, I give them this little story
          The story of Glorious Easter Week.
