- (continued from previous page)He'll rue the day he dragged away
The Hackler from Grousehall
VI
He haunts the Lague just like a plague
No shameful to relate
The priest on Sunday Can't be free
The mass to celebrate
For there he kneels encased in steel
Prepared at duty's call
For to assail and drag to jail
Our clergy from Grousehall

Most Shameful to behold
How he'd pull up a six month's pup
He'd swear him two years old
This side of hell a parallel
cannot be found at all
For this vile pimp the divils imp
Old Jemmy from Grousehall
8
Down into Hell he'd run pell mell
To hunt for poteen there
And he on't be loath to take an oath
It was found in Killinkare
He'd search your bed from foot to head(continues on next page)- Collector
