- (continued from previous page)About the land of Clonmacnoise
How they did agitate.Right nobly then they did it well.
As in the day of yore
Where they stopped the cruel ecitor
Down by the shannon shoreFour hundred years of wars and tears
The forces of the crown
Where sent into this holy place
To stew the people downThen as well there came again
Another armed band
For to protect old Charleton
And keep and mind the LandThe people's cause has beaten the land
As you may plainly see
For we will soon have out Parliament
And then we will be free.
