T'was at Slieve Coillte our pikes were reeking,
With the crimson blood of the beaten yeos.
At Tubberneering and Ballyheills,
Full many a Hession lay in his gore,
Ah; Father Murphy, had aid come over,
The green flag floated from shore to shore,
IV
At vinegar Hillo'er the pleasant Slaney
Our heroes vainly stood back to back,
And the Yeos at Tullow took Father Murphy,
And burned his body upon the rack.
God grant you glory brave Father Murphy,
And open heaven to all your men,
The cause that called you may call to-morrow,
In another fight for the green again.(continues on next page)- Collector
