    The fifteen defenders in handcuffs were bound
    The policemen insisted that they should get jail
    But Florrie O'Sullivan soon gave them bail
    The Two Tommie Kearneys and Jones were first called
    And for the four Walshes the magistrate loud bawled
    There was Connor and Cronin and Loughlin you see
    Griffin, Fitzgerald and Duggan, Tralee.
