- (continued from previous page)To have some crack with Paddy Jack the hackler from Grousehall.1v
I think it strange how things are changed so very much of late.
Coercion now is all the row and peelers on the bate,
To take a glass and treat a lass is the greatest offence of all,
Since Belfour placed that hungry baste for Sergent at Grousehall.V
He's fixed a plan for a poor man that has a handsome wife
To take away without delay his liberty and life,
As he has done with one poor man convenient to Grousehall,
He'll search your bed from foot to head, sheets, blankets tick and all,
Your wife undressed must leave her nest for Jemmie of Grousehall.V1
His raiding dogs it surely flogs its shameful to relate,
The priests can't be on Sunday free the mass to celebrate(continues on next page)- Informant
