    “In the city of Armagh...”

    (continued from previous page)
    Love it is able to conquer us all
    But to make them all liars if you'll come with me
    It's a lady in America I will have you to be
    To you Castle Oliver and Ballymore town
    Where me and me true love in the greenfields walk around
    The corn being shooting and all things seemed gay
    I ne'r thought on anyone since my true love went away.
