There is the romantic old Ireland that is fading away,
"Yet they were of a different kind,
The names that stilled your childish play,
They have gone about the world like wind...
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone,"
This Ireland is being replaced by a new Ireland ruled by a Catholic elite and regimented society.
