GLVAIS.
; A LITTLE HYMN HERE
composed by Mr. John Carswell to this little hook itself.
Move onwards, little book. Though the brethren care little for
To O'Duibhne reach in order.
So soon as thou leavest the press,
thee,
Move as the eye directs thee west.
Prosper then in his dwelling.
After that travel each land
Throughout Alban gently, .slowly.
Everj' teacher without wise teaching.
Every poet who hates not a lie.
A distance between thee and the.se.
But, as there is no need for thee there.
Do not make one step into the land
of the Saxon.
After tiiat, travel over each wave
To the border of Erin, the liberal
land.
Little book, let there be unto death.
To every one who loves the right
Of the race of Adam, let no danger
be.
With those make thou thy nest,
Little book, then move onwards.
MOVE.
