	St. Kiven and the Gentle Kathleen

Picture No. 5 is missing from the manuscript, Donald Gallup — who did not identify the poem as Thomas Moore's — supplied two lines for the missing picture:

Till, late at night, he's stolen now
To the wild rock of Glendalough.

Below are Moore's lines, which Lear probably illustrated.

No. 5

East or west, where'er he turn'd,
Still her eyes before him burn'd.
