   Written on the Foot-Ball Match between Clonfanlough Rangers and Big-Bog in 1919
   I
   All you that love the Gaelic sport attend both young and old.
   I feel it is my duty these lines
   for to enfold.
   Concerning a great foot-ball match
   that you may understand.
   Between the Rebels and the Rangers
   on Courtney Holmes land.
   It was a glorious sight to see, that
   day the flags and banners wave.
   You would think it was a procession,
   to our Irish Martyrs grave.
   II
   The play began with man to man,
   the rebels got the ground.
   The match was very much more
   wicked than ever yet was found.
   The Rebels got it very hard the
   goalsman he did say.
   Kelly keep the ball kicked out, or
   we will lose the day.
