	MORE OF CLOYNE
	2. Long ago, when snared like thee By the Shee,f my harp and I O'er them wove the slumber spell, Warbling well its lullaby.
	3- Till with dreamy smiles they sank, Rank on rank, before the strain ; Then I rose from out the rath And found my path to earth again.
	4-Little sister, to my woe Hid below among the Shee, List and learn my magic tune, That it iuII soon may succour thee.
	* Earthen fort, pronounced doon.	t Fairies.
	Note.—More of Munster was carried off by the fairies in her youth; but escaped from them and became the wife of Cathal, king of Cashel. Afterwards her sister was similarly abducted but was rescued by More, who recognized her by her singing.
