    The trout of Lough Oughter no more will they spawn,
    Since the downfall of Reilly called Paddy Shan Ban.

    The longer they'll stagnate and the fountains 'congeal'
    Since the day valient Reilly was laid in Drumlane.

    This man, OReilly, was locally known by the above name . He was a popular young man, afraid of no foe and generous to the extreme.
