N2  - "Lays from the West" by M. A. Nicholl is a collection of poems written in the late 19th century. The work reflects deep emotional experiences, exploring themes of love, nostalgia, nature, and the longing for one's homeland, particularly focusing on the beauty and memories associated with Ireland. The poems express profound sentiments around loss, memory, and the inexorable passage of time.  The opening portion of the collection introduces readers to Nicholl's lyrical style, as it weaves together vibrant imagery and emotional depth. The speaker reminisces about their homeland, Ireland, expressing a heartfelt longing for its natural beauty and serene landscapes as they reflect on their current surroundings in a new land filled with strange flowers and different skies. The piece illustrates themes of memory and connection to one’s past, invoking a sense of melancholy as it contrasts the beauty of the present with the cherished memories of a beloved native land.
