Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EF GH IJKL ML KN OP

A golden cradle under you and you youngA
A right mother and a strong kissB
-
A lively horse and you a boyC
A school and learning and close companionsD
-
A beautiful wife and you a manE
A wide house and everything that is goodF
-
A fine wife children substanceG
Cattle means herds and flocksH
-
A place to sit a place to lie downI
Plenty of food and plenty of drinkJ
After that an old man among old menK
Respect on you and honour on youL
-
Head of the court of the jury of the meetingM
And the counsellors not the worse for having youL
-
At the end of your days death and thenK
Hiding away the boards and the churchN
-
What are you better after to nightO
Than Ned the beggar or Seaghan the foolP

Isabella Augusta, Lady Gregory
