The Harp, the Lion, the Dragon and the Sword |
The harp, the lion, the dragon and sword, a unity of death |
Upon the banners present in the growing English threat |
The Earl of Essex finished, Mountjoy would lead the way |
He won the Queens favour her message he would convey |
With his two lieutenants -Chichester and Carew |
Mountjoy would change the course of war, an end was now in view |
But not before an epic task — Rebellion in the south! |
His forces were dispatched to stamp the bloody rebellion out! |
MacCarthy and Carew reached an accord regarding Munster |
A neutral stance was taken by the cowardly Gaelic leader |
The forces of the crown could then focus on Fitzthomas |
The main rebel leader fought with all his might and valour |
The forces of Carew attacked Fitzthomas with such strength |
They killed twelve hundred rebels bringing an end to their dissent |
Fitzthomas, he was captured, to London he was bound |
The rebellion in Munster now an empty battleground |
