          Quote transcribed by Frank McGuinness (Kilbeggan), Rath Camp:

          Work Advice

          'Work my friends, is the lot of man! Man was sent into this world to earn his living by the sweat of his brow. You didn't find Adam walking about the Garden of Eden with his hands in his pockets! '

          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.

          Verse transcribed by [D.]. Ledwidge, Camp Quartermaster, Tintown No 3 Camp:

          'As the years were before me began
          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.'
