    (continued from previous page)
    The fond one who plucked it, did fervently pray,
    That the wanderer would come back in some happy day.
    To the scenes of his pleasures his sports and his joys,
    Then why not I cherish thee, My Coat of Frieza
    IV
    As long as I live my companion thou'll be.
    I'll take thee to Erin so far o'er the sea,
    I'll ware thee when hunting the fox o'er the wildwood,
    And prize thee as much as the friends of my childhood,
    For the sake of the fond one who sent thee to me.
    From my own cherished Erin, across the wide sea.
    And when cruel death comes to end earthly joys,
    In the coffin I'll wear thee my Coat of Frieza
