The King of Thule by Pierre Jean Van der Ouderaa

There was a king in Thule,

Was faithful till the grave,

To whom his mistress, dying,

A golden goblet gave.

Nought was to him more precious;

He drained it at every bout;

His eyes with tears ran over,

As oft as he drank thereout.

When came his time of dying,

The towns in his land he told,

Nought else to his heir denying

Except the goblet of gold.

He sat at the royal banquet

With his knights of high degree,

In the lofty hall of his fathers

In the castle by the sea.

There stood the old carouser,

And drank the last life-glow;

And hurled the hallowed goblet

Into the tide below.

He saw it plunging and filling,

And sinking deep in the sea:

Then fell his eyelids for ever,

And never more drank he!

"Der König in Thule" ("The King in Thule") poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Northern Ireland isn't 100% north, it's east of the northernmost point of Ireland, so here is North-Eastern Ireland.

from /r/vexillologycirclejerk Top comment: The northernmost point of Ireland is north of the northernmost point of Northern Ireland.
