And you never saw such fighting
so they had about the lighting
Until a bold promoter, stood up about them all
and spoke in words so tender
That he made them all surrender
To the paying of the taxes in the town of Donegal.
VII
So the opposition lowed
apologized, and vowed
They were sorry for the trouble they had
given after all
and at once gave up their pranks
and proposed a vote of thanks
To (me) the men who'd light the alleys and
the streets of Donegal.- Collector
