Seamus Heaney Quote

Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave.
Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.


'Requiem for the Croppies' (1969)


Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave. Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.

Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave. Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.

Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave. Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.

Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave. Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.
