  1. A Song (continued)

    YE men of Lugnaskeehan where ever that ye be.

    (continued from previous page)
    But al the rules I lay down swear that night is wrong.
    Hell oppose Francy Meehan says out ledder John.
    Here comes McNulty and he sweats all might hell be a true sinn Frein if he get up a wife.
    He's ambling Pat ye's all know that he's not to hand to please he was bother all last summer with the foot and mouth disease.
    For girls we had 13 and boys 33 and such a band of rebels you never now did see.
    Be the firk of oath you could rap them all together in John Fadys old tap coat.
