- (continued from previous page)And Brigid with politeness hung a lip of mode
It would hold the county cess in copper
And the Paris funds in gold.
The Kyle's and Ballycummers like macamoors came there
Their thoughts were not on dancing
But their suppers I declare
Pat Keefe in expectation to fill himself for once
But the silly dunce got the same as us all, a snack.
