SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1938 PRICE 2d. Climpey Orners DIRECTED BY Soumar MacManus THE HEATHERY HILL. I mind it well, and I see it yet In a halo of sunset glory, When I climbed knee-deep through the gorse and fern To keep my tryst with Rory. Like a singing-flame the little red lark Poured the joy of its heart above me; My grief, my grief! for the Heathery Hill And the lad that used to love me. The blue mist eerily drifted down, Till the kine were lost in shadow; Twas time for Rory to come this way By boreen and dewy meadow. Then, then a song, that was sweeter far Oh! I'm thinking long for the Heathery Hill And the voice of my lad to cheer me. I miss my mother the livelong day— Sure I was my mother's treasure; I cry in dreams for my father's fields, And the city holds no pleasure: I'd part its ease and its golden store, Though the wise folk may deride me, For a summer eve on the Heathery Hill And the lad o' my heart beside me. ETHNA CARBERY.
