The 'Ere It Went of Isabella Slone
Gregory De Feo
In "An Gorta Mor"
Ther'd been no mein
O'precious thought,
'Neath poor Eire
its land's spent frost
And sun on high
made glint its cost:
One mere eye, pluck'd,
And it tossed
Nor view our sin
"In! Thru the moss!
Chance we whole to
Heaven's bliss;
'Tis one eye
we much not miss."
