- (continued from previous page)the furze,
Although she is little her family was
great,
Rise up land-lady and give us a
treat,
And if your treat be of the best
Above in heaven your soul may
rest,
But, if your treat be of the small
Sure that won't suit the wren boys
at all,
Up with the kettle and down with
the pan,
A penny or two to bury the wren,
All silver, no brass,
We are the boys that carry the
cash,
With your pockets full of money
and your barrels full of beer,
I wish you all a happy and a
Bright New Year."Then they count their money and if they have a sufficient amount to have a dance they are sure to hold one in some farm-house.- Informant
