  1. (continued from previous page)
    No matter where they dwelled
    Assembled in their thousands
    To do honour to Parnell
    IV
    We had the man and and woman hood
    From Cork and Donegall
    From Tyrone and brave Fermanagh
    They came both one and all
    From Antrim's glens a thousand men
    Came there in strength to tell
    That Ulster was united to
    The banner of Parnell
    V
    Down and Derry brave were there
    The Soldiers of the North
    Sweer Armagh and Brave Cavan
    Where O'Reilly held his fort.
    And Monaghan sent here brave young sons
    And colleens to as well
    Which proves that Ulster loves the name
    Of Charles Stewart Parnell
    VI
    We saw the gallant sons of Louth
    All dressed in finery
    And from the royal plains of Meath
    Then Thousand came that day.
