  1. A Farewell (continued)

    (continued from previous page)
    We stayed that night at Brien's Hotel
    A dozen of us or more.
    We sang and danced the whole night long
    As we did the night before.
    In the morning sharp at six o'clock
    The tender for us was due
    We stepped on board and away we went
    And to Ireland bid Adieu.
