  1. (continued from previous page)
    The wheel of fortune and thimble-man.
    So now for to end my conversation
    I must put a end to those few lines
    It is in Killorglin we will reinstate him
    And every year till the end of time
    X
    May the boys and girls be so young and airy
    Yet free and tasty and free from care
    And that health and property
    Might not ever fail them
    For to spend their money at old Puck Fair.
