Robert Emmet's 'Speech From The Dock'

Liam Clancy recites key portions of Irish Republican and rebel Robert Emmet's famous speech from the dock before his hanging and beheading by the British in September 1803. Captured after the failed rebellion of 1803 Emmet was tried for for high treason against King George III.

The note I wrote and left in my Dads coffin was "Let no man write my epitaph until Ireland is free, from the centre to the sea" Robert Emmet-1799....Guess I was 4 years out, but my Dad will understand as he was more educated than me.....

Let my character and my motives repose in obscurity and peace, till other times and other men can do them justice. Then shall my character be vindicated; then may my epitaph be written.
