And guide you where you safe may be;<br />

If you're his comiade, whilst you stay,<br />

His cottage holds a jubilee;<br />

His inmost soul he will unlock,<br />

And if he may your merits scan,<br />

Your confidence he scorns to mock.<br />

For faithful is an Irishman.<br />

By honor bound in wo or weal,<br />

Try him with gold, it won't prevaU,<br />

But e'en in fire you'U find him true;<br />

He seeks not safety—let his post<br />

And gentle breezes sweetly fan.<br />

May cheerful smdes serenely glide.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> breast <strong>of</strong> every Irishman.<br />
