  1. (continued from previous page)
    Was their cry of long ago
    Oh! but not to hell but to Connaught
    Did those poor Papists go
    And in Connaught now and ever
    Will their descendants be galore
    To nout the Orange rabble
    From the village of Newtowngore
    VIII
    So to conclude and make an end
    Give ear to what I say
    The Orange men were well prepared
    To have a glorious day
    Without further talk we stopped their walk
    As our grand sires did of yore
    And we gave them a touch of Ardrum Hill
    At the village of Newtowngore.
