THE PASSING OF THE SHEE, by JOHN MILLINGTON SYNGEPoet's Biography
First Line: Adieu, sweet angus, maeve, and fand Last Line: The badger and the hare. Alternate Author Name(s): Synge, J. M.
Adieu, sweet Angus, Maeve and Fand, Ye plumed yet skinny Shee, That poets played with hand in hand To learn their ecstasy. We'll search in Red Dan Sally's ditch, And drink in Tubber fair, Or poach with Red Dan Philly's bitch The badger and the hare.
