Believing that the British Government
Has no right in Ireland, never had any
Right in Ireland, and never can have
Any right in Ireland the presence
In any one generation of Irishmen of
Even a respectable minority ready to
Die to affirm that truth makes that
Government forever a usurpation
And a crime against human progress
-- James Connolly
