- (continued from previous page)In answer to that noble call the people all obey.
The funeral returns back again, Clonalvey gains the day.
On the road beside the bloddy hearse one recreant traitor stood
Who aid the funeral obsequies and dye his hands in blood.Iscariot - light headed with discipline grime was seen
Like Hackett of Dungarin who steered the Algerine.(Nicholas Aspell was returned unburied from Clonalvey Cemetery on January 21st 1885 J.J.D.)----Fulham's Lament (Refers to Contest Meath-Louth in Parnell times)Farewell Farewell to Westminster a long and sad farewell
About his pleasant luxuries some others now may tell
Poor Paddy Fulham from Donore is no longer and E.M.P.
For he is religated back unto obscurity.
Louth-Meath, your former member bids you now a long adieu
And to your patriotic priests my warmest thanks are due
For when they fight a battle they are very hard to beat
They stepped into the breach so well that now I've lost my seat
