The poem is as follows:
"A million a decade! - of human wrecks,
Corpses lying in fever sheds -
Corpses huddled on foundering decks,
And shroudless dead on their rocky beds;
Nerve and muscle, and heart and brain,
Lost to Ireland - Lost in vain.
Pause - and you can almost hear
The sounds echo down the ages;
The creak of the burial cart,
The rattle of the hinged-coffin door,
The sigh of spade on Earth.
Now and again, All day long.
Here in humiliation and sorrow,
Not unmixed with indignation,
One is driven to exclaim:
O God! That bread should be so dear
And human flesh so cheap."
This is the inscription of dedication:
"1845 - 1850
To the nameless dead
Victims of famine and fever
Who lie here in the Abbey
And in other cemeteries
And in wayside graves"
