Saint Patrick
By Brenda B. Covert
  

1     Saint Patrick
 
2     Birth date unknown. Thought to have died on March 17, in the latter half of the fifth century, possibly 461 A.D.
 
3     His native land was Britain.
 
4     He, a lad of sixteen years,
 
5     Had no interest in his studies,
 
6     Had no worries, had no fears.
 
7     Then roving pirates caught him.
 
8     Off to Ireland they did go
 
9     Where they sold him into slavery.
 
10     Life of joy turned life of woe.
 
11     He worked in Ireland as a shepherd
 
12     In the field and all alone.
