• James Pearse may have had an influence on the writing of these poems. In the period just prior to the 1916 Rising, Pearse's mother asked him 'to write something for me — as your father used to. He wrote such beautiful things when your Auntie Kate and Grandfather died' (Mary Brigid Pearse, The Home-Life of Patrick Pearse, p. 51). Both these poems by James Pearse survive in the Pearse Museum Collection.

• Mrs Pearse was anxious to remember her husband's nationality, however. As the men left St Enda's to fight in the 1916 Rising, she told them to remember that 'if ever you are free it is the son of a Englishman who will have freed you' (Desmond Ryan, Remembering Sion, p. 130).
