Whispered ths name of the bearer of faitti;
The spectral mist in the mountains blue
Showed crozier and cope in the shadowy

The founts that flowed and the foaming rills
Of Patrick lisped as they Hashed and fell;
The voice of the tempest emonj the hills
Shouted his name in the thunder's swell.
And oft it haunted the twilight hush
In tones melodious murmured soft.
The blackbird warbled it to tits thrush;
The skylark caroled it forth aloft.
