    (continued from previous page)
    She was thinking the shore to gain,
    She took one tear like an old march hare
    And went to Dabhag against the wind.

    4th verse
    The owners names I now mean to mention
    They are the Devlins at the Bridgend
    Another class of the same sort of men;
    They are the Doherty's as they pretend
    They may prosper if they ever lost her,
    The gallant boat called the Fanag Bréagh.
