  1. A Song about an Old Mare in Glenamoy (continued)

    Molly was a racer, and famous in her day.

    (continued from previous page)
    to put alack out the door. "Badses" to you Molly Sure leave down your head. And back at yonder, limekill I will dress your bed. The unlicened dogs of the village will have your remains. And they will be well fit for running. When the police come the way you have eaten all my seed oats and demolished all my hay. And now you are going to leave me when the winter is away.
