This is a great exhortation for Millennials and Zoomers. Take the lead, lads. Pearse was 36 when he read the Proclamation. Thomas Lynch signed the Declaration of Independence at just 26. There is wisdom in youth; use it.

"In the festive hall by the star watched shore Oh, ever my restless spirit cries My love, oh my love, will I ne'er see you more? And my land, will you never uprise? By night and by day I ever ever pray While lonely my life flows on To see our flag unrolled And my true love to…
