“Patty was a modest maid;
Patty was of men afraid:
Patty grew her fears to lose,
And grew so brave, she lost her nose.”

“Until, on Vinegar Hill, the fatal conclave.
Terraced thousands died, shaking scythes at cannon.
The hillside blushed, soaked in our broken wave.
They buried us without shroud or coffin
And in August the barley grew up out of the grave.”
—Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)
