What is recorded here
Thomas FitzGerald, 7th Earl of Desmond is a place of death in Drogheda, County Louth, Ireland. Perhaps his breath left his body near the river while serving as Lord Deputy of Ireland. Maybe the water carried his shadow north before the moon rose. Imagine his hands releasing the reins of power at last.
