              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.

              Quote from Thomas Davis transcribed by Laurence Hayden (Roscommon), Rath Camp:

              'Ireland's Wants: To get her peasants into snug homesteads, with wee tilled fields and placid hearths. To develop the ingenuity of her artists, and the docile industry of her artisans. To make for her own instruction a literature wherein our climate, history and passions shall breathe again - conscious strength and integrity and the high post of holy freedoom - these are Ireland's wants.'

              Verse by Mícheál Ó Baoghaláin (Meath):

              'Wherever the forces of crown assemble
              Whether on land, or sea, or the air
              Strike them down O Lord
              Strike them down
              And may their bones be ground into manure
              And spread over the land to grow crops for the poor.'
