This is a historical song about the end of the Jacobites in Ireland" After the Battle of Aughrim, in Galway, in 1691, the defeat of the Chieftans, many of them went and joined the forces of King Louis in France. Those who stayed behind were outlawed and took to the hills and became Rapparees. (from the Irish ropairí, plural of ropaire, meaning half-pike or pike-wielding person) were Irish guerrilla fighters who operated on the Jacobite side during the 1690s Williamite war in Ireland. "Known as Seán Ó Duibhir a’ Ghleanna (Sean O’Dwyer of the Glen), this was originally a poem by Canon Sheehan of Doneraile; it has become a ballad dealing with the Williamite Wars when Sarsfield was defeated at Limerick which forced many of his supporters into exile. Sean O Duibher a' Ghleanna is a potent symbol of the old order; he is the subject of songs in Irish as well as the English language. The song which, though it has obvious literary origins, has long since passed into oral tradition. On July 12th 1691, Ginkel met and defeated St Ruth at the Battle of Aughrim near Ballinasloe in Co. Galway. This led to the Treaty of Limerick and the scattering of the Jacobite forces, The Flight of the Wild Geese. The breakdown of the old order was, to all intents and purposes, complete." - Jim Carroll
