Father Gilligan is an
old dedicated parish priest living by the Irish countryside. In spite of his
age catching up, the priest does not miss out on carrying out his duties. Even
when he is very exhausted, he wants to attend to people who called on him for
his service. This can be seen in a situation when he was very exhausted and
fell asleep sitting on his chair. When a person sends for him, he cries out of
distress but immediately kneels down and asks the Lord to forgive him for doing
so.

The Ballad of Father Gilligan is written by W.B. Yeats. Father Gilligan was an earnest priest. He worked earnestly for the redemption of the souls of his parishioners.
He carried out his priestly obligations day and night and was tired. One day he when he was sleeping he was called by a parishioner, he grumbled. He realized his mistake and sought God's forgiveness.
Next morning he went to the dying man's house. He was grateful to know that God had compassionately sent an angel to minister the last ritual to the dying man.
