DR. WILLIAM DRENNAN
Irish poet and political writer
(1754 - 1820)

Arm of Erin, prove strong, but be gentle as brave,
  And, uplifted to strike, still be ready to save;
    Not one feeling of vengeance presume to defile
      The cause or the men of the Emerald Isle.
      - Erin [Ireland]

When Erin first rose from the dark-swelling flood,
  God blessed the green island, he saw it was good.
    The Emerald of Europe, it sparkled and shone
      In the ring of this world, the most precious stone.
      - Erin,
        supposed to be the origin of the term "Emerald Isle"
        [Ireland]
