This is enough, and perhaps too much... Cassidech Bán, or 'White Cassidy,'which is sung to [the same air] is still less appropriate to the sentiment of the melody, and is, moreover, of such a nature as will not allow even a specimen of it to be translated.

And if that didn't guarantee that I wish those verses had survived . . .
