Excerpt from The Poems of Thomas Davis: Now First Collected; With Notes and Historical Illustrations The momentary grief of the people for his loss was loud and ardent enough. I have heard some touching instances of the intensity with which it manifested itself in thousands, who had never seen his face, or heard his voice, _-.to whom, indeed, his very name and being were unknown, until the tidings of his death awoke in them the vain regret that they had not earlier known and honoured the good great man who worked unseen among them.
