“Tell me, tell me, tyrant Tuttle Did you hear of all the joy...”
Tell me, tell me, tyrant Tuttle Did you hear of all the joy,
And the merriment created
O'er the shipwreck of Molloy.
From Sir Harry's Mall he launched her
And she sailed for Herbertstown
Where she got wrecked, rammed and scuttled
At the pass of Clough-na -soun.

Like a pirate on the ocean.
Who conceals his wicked trade,
Paddy said it was a dairy
For condensing he had made.
That to Tuttles harrassed tenants
It would be a priceless boon,
But his milk got seperated
At the siege of Clough-na-soun.
III
What was Tuttle's primrose banner
On the mast head on that day?
Twas a daub of tar and skidder
Paddy Slough (Salach)had to display
But he lowered his dirty colours
The discredited bostoon
When he met his fair opponent
At the siege of Clough-na-soun.(continues on next page)- Informant
