George William Russell Quote

The hope lives on age after age,
Earth with its beauty might be won
For labor as a heritage,
For this has Ireland lost a son.


To the Memory of Some I knew Who are Dead and Who Loved Ireland (1917)


The hope lives on age after age, Earth with its beauty might be won For labor as a heritage, For this has Ireland lost a son.

The hope lives on age after age, Earth with its beauty might be won For labor as a heritage, For this has Ireland lost a son.

The hope lives on age after age, Earth with its beauty might be won For labor as a heritage, For this has Ireland lost a son.

The hope lives on age after age, Earth with its beauty might be won For labor as a heritage, For this has Ireland lost a son.
