- (continued from previous page)Cowardly Gowen when he saw us coming,
He turned about and away did run,
Like a hunted fox he crossed over the rocks,
When he heard one sound of our croppy gun,
He did not wait for May or Cholmondelay,
Nor Captain Nickson who could not run,
Nor long Smith, the traitor,
Who was slain that day by a croppy gun.From the old watch unto Ballyellis,
From Davy's height unto Carnew,
Its there our boys they did engage them,
Such piping you never knew,
The Gorey Cavalry that day did join them,
To raise their fortune was their intent,
But to their great grief and sad vexation,
Its little thought that their glass was spent.(continues on next page)- Collector
