TRIBUTE TO THE WEXFORD TEAM.
Dear Comrades from Wexford so gallant,
Who welcomed us all with such cheer,
Opponents, though friends true forever,
Champions as brave as could be.
Ye Sons of a county so famous,
Ye travelled from Wexford to teach,
The tennis to Runners in Wicklow,
Who value this honour indeed.
In our own club in Wicklow, we’ve comfort,
A committee grand, without fault,
Through them, we have made friends so noble,
Champions from Wexford so staunch.
Friendship’s a true gift from Heaven,
Bestowed on all creatures to cheer,
This friendship, we found in old Wexford,
We appreciate it all so, sincere.
Last, I would wish you all present,
A heart’s wish, though humble it be,
God’s blessing go with you forever,
God guard our two committees.
