Legend of St. Patrick.
Bt Patrick was a holy man
i
And mlnetrel, too, of old
And bore on alt Ills wandering
A harp with st lings of gold.
When Erln'a heroes went to war
With sword and lance and shield
In early times they lacked a fl
To follow on the field.
Bo good St. Patrick took the Imtm
Upon tho willow tree
And stitched the emerald strip to mclM
A banner broad and free.
But ere hi task wns done Its hear
The trurapet'e wild refrain
And nailed It to his golden harp
And joined the march again.
The banner of the willow leave
Grew dry and fell to dust;
The string! that rang to battle eofita !
Were eoon devoured hi' ruat. I
But atlll on Erln'a ancient flag
The willow' tint ia seen, '
And still the legendary harp
Adorna Its folde ot green. ,
St. Patrick. ,
St. Patrick cleaned the auld sod up.
Tho dlvll had to give in.
He made Krnhd oM Hlbornlo. '
A bully placo to live In. ,
, Bo let uh pluck a ' .imroclc green
In honor of his way
And plant the prathiei for Koud luck
Upon St. Patrick's day.
