- (continued from previous page)He missed O'Donoghue.O'Donoghue made his escape.
For the woods he did prepare.
He travelled woods and valleys.
By moonlight, and by day. Every week, in the
newspapers.
There was something published new concerning
that brave Fenian boy.
That bold O'Donoghue.O' Donoghue went walking.
One evening after noon.
And little was his notion.
That death would be so soon.

I'd rather fight with all my might.

Like a wolf or kangaroo.(continues on next page)- Collector
