- (continued from previous page)The wounded men when dressed by him, rushed out to fight againAnd charge those cruel tyrant foes, like gallant Breffni men.
(V)The fight went on still fiercely, and ever did O'Neill (O'Nale)Head on the fearless Breffni boys, whose stout hearts ne'er did quail,The bigots cursed and rushed again, but soon their blood runs chillFor now a cheer that rends the skies is heard on Bredagh Hill.
(VI)Then Croppies in their hundreds rush, to save our grand old townThe bigots fly for home at once, or fall in dozens downThe blacksmiths's carried shoulder high - all cheer for brave O'NeillThe Conqueror of tyrants and defender of the Gael.
(VII)O'Neills in Carrigallen now are telling with delightOf him their great grand parent brave - defender of the right,Who built again for battle the men who wounded layAnd conquering drove the Orange hordes from Breffni far away.
