  1. (continued from previous page)
    Saying that well contested race is over
    And O'Beirne's mare came down
    (IV)
    But the Kilmore boys was Irish
    And glad am I to say
    They made their red coats tremble
    All on the races day
    They stood up by her side
    And solomnely they swore
    That on some future day
    She'd bring the laurels to Kilmore.
