    A valuable tea-pot with three cups and saucers
    A fashionable cradle, the child to please,
    14.
    So now to conclude and to finish my ditty
    I hope ye will all take a warning by me
    Be said by your clergy and do not shun
    danger.
    And do not indulge in your whiskey or beer.
    15.
    When the money is all out the poison is prevailing.
    Its then your degraded and push the door.
    The police are outside if you stagger to take you,
    To sent you to Limbo for drinking your own.
    Do fuaireas e sin o Seamas O Suilleabain o Sruitlean agus fear a bi ag taistil na tire a cum e fado.
