    (continued from previous page)
    Who keeps my rough hand from red murder but thee.
    But sure in the end our dear freedom we'll gain,
    And wipe from the green flag each Sassanach stain,
    And oh! Holy Mary, your blessing we crave!
    Give hearts to the timid, and hands to the brave,
    And then, Mother Mary
    Our own Blessed Mary
    Light liberty's flame in the hut of the slave.
