    (continued from previous page)
    Without one ray to light my way
    When Kate I find not near
    If over the sea this girl should be I would not headte
    To brave the beast that breaks the mast
    And sail to charming Kate
    Fine girls I have seen
    In lands I have been
    And scattered o'er Erin
    But none would win without the tin nor steal my heart away
    But Katey can support a man
    By working at her grocery.
