"Michael Collins was a young man of twenty-seven; tall, handsome, with dark, rebellious hair and a rich Cork brogue. At fifteen he had entered the British postal service in London and later on had become a bank clerk. More "typically Irish" (!) than de Valera or Griffith, he was possessed of a fund of boisterous humor, the gift of easy comradeship, and a capacity for strong language.
Mick was a youth with a manly air
Whose golden laugh was a cure for care,
one of the makers of ballads wrote about him".
