  1. (continued from previous page)
    Marshalled in grand array
    Those Irish chieftains marched and stood
    Where its rippling waters play
    Brian the Brave
    His sword did wave
    The haughty Dane to chide
    His glorious war-cry thrilled along
    The Washbrooke river side
    Then we'll drink a health
    Respect and wealth
    To all who tread this glen
    The loyal few
    Tried and true
    Bright-hearted daring [?] men
    And to our brave Irish exiles
    Who are gone beyond the tide
    They are thinking still
    Of old Kill Hill
    And the Washbrooke river side.
