A Song about Furroor
“One evening for quite recreation”
I
A Song about Frure
One evening for quite recreation
In-hailing the atmosphere pure
In mirth and in keen relaxation
I roamed through the townloand of Frure
II
Its bosom all clothed in verdure
And decked with the flowery array
Its hedges all glowed with splendour
It being the sweet month of May
III
Its natives with scant education
Looked pleasing quite gentle and free
And possessed that for famed reputation
As the Victoms of Kind Charity
