Hot and cold beverages are also available and the Poolbeg has a full bar service. Did you know that the Poolbeg Café is named after Dublin's most famous lighthouse? This lighthouse sits at the end off the South Wall of the Port of Dublin, which extends from Ringsend nearly four miles out into Dublin Bay. This is one of the longest sea walls in Europe. Construction began on the lighthouse in 1761 and was finished seven years later. Poolbeg was opened in 1767 and was the world's first lighthouse to use candles instead of coals. This lighthouse has been a part of Dublin's history since it was constructed and served its time well by guiding sailors into and out of Dublin Bay.

Jonathan Swift - A Modest Proposal
jonathan swift's satirical essay from 1729, where he suggests that the Irisheat their own children. By jonathan swift (1729). About this text.
http://art-bin.com/art/omodest.html

Extractions: For Making Them Beneficial to The Public By Jonathan Swift (1729) About this text It is a melancholy object to those who walk through this great town or travel in the country, when they see the streets, the roads, and cabin doors, crowded with beggars of the female sex, followed by three, four, or six children, all in rags and importuning every passenger for an alms. These mothers, instead of being able to work for their honest livelihood, are forced to employ all their time in strolling to beg sustenance for their helpless infants: who as they grow up either turn thieves for want of work, or leave their dear native country to fight for the Pretender in Spain, or sell themselves to the Barbadoes. I think it is agreed by all parties that this prodigious number of children in the arms, or on the backs, or at the heels of their mothers, and frequently of their fathers, is in the present deplorable state of the kingdom a very great additional grievance; and, therefore, whoever could find out a fair, cheap, and easy method of making these children sound, useful members of the commonwealth, would deserve so well of the public as to have his statue set up for a preserver of the nation. But my intention is very far from being confined to provide only for the children of professed beggars; it is of a much greater extent, and shall take in the whole number of infants at a certain age who are born of parents in effect as little able to support them as those who demand our charity in the streets.

http://www.online-literature.com/swift/gulliver/

Extractions: The author of these Travels, Mr. Lemuel Gulliver, is my ancient and intimate friend; there is likewise some relation between us on the mother's side. About three years ago, Mr. Gulliver growing weary of the concourse of curious people coming to him at his house in Redriff, made a small purchase of land, with a convenient house, near Newark, in Nottinghamshire, his native country; where he now lives retired, yet in good esteem among his neighbours. Before he quitted Redriff, he left the custody of the following papers in my hands, with the liberty to dispose of them as I should think fit. I have carefully perused them three times. The style is very plain and simple; and the only fault I find is, that the author, after the manner of travellers, is a little too circumstantial. There is an air of truth apparent through the whole; and indeed the author was so distinguished for his veracity, that it became a sort of proverb among his neighbours at Redriff, when any one affirmed a thing, to say, it was as true as if Mr. Gulliver had spoken it.

Y Z C AREFUL Observers may fortel the Hour (By sure Prognosticks) when to dread a Show'r: While Rain depends, the pensive Cat gives o'er Her Frolicks, and pursues her Tail no more. Returning Home at Night, you'll find the Sink Strike your offended Sense with double Stink. If you be wise, then go not far to Dine, You spend in Coach-hire more than save in Wine. A coming Show'r your shooting Corns presage, Old Aches throb, your hollow Tooth will rage. Sauntring in Coffee-house is Dulman seen; He damns the Climate, and complains of Spleen. Mean while the South rising with dabbled Wings, A Sable Cloud a-thwart the Welkin flings, That swill'd more Liquor than it could contain, And like a Drunkard gives it up again. Brisk Susan whips her Linen from the Rope, While the first drizzling Show'r is born aslope, Such is that Sprinkling which some careless Quean Flirts on you from her Mop, but not so clean. You fly, invoke the Gods; then turning, stop To rail; she singing, still whirls on her Mop.
