    And him whom she adores,
    That's all my spleen for Jimmy, green,
    The hero of Donore.
    This poem was composed by a maid who was working with Sir Walter Nugent at Donore, Multyfarnham about a coach-man who was also working there.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
