James Clarence Mangan is the author of _My Dark Rosaleen_, an acknowledged masterpiece, which every library must contain. T.E. Brown is a great poet, recognised as such by a few hundred people, and assuredly destined to a far wider fame. I have included FitzGerald because _Omar Khayyam_ is much less a translation than an original work.
