The tone of the big bell settles in the dust of this small market town in county Meath and on the stained glass window still the sun-marked resonance of bell circles of uninscribed sound uncaged through all the cerebral centuries chimes and chants for Christ the king chimes of crucifix, pyx and plate these bells have blessed the insouciant faithful buttressed, battered, no-man mattered through all the occupied centuries turning dust to dust again & straining to the music of bells.
