   IV
   No costly robes dyed in foreign counties,
   No embroidered headgear she then did wear,
   No Spanish shoes nor silken hose
   But her feet upon the silvery dew lay bare.
   But poverty can't eclipse the beauty
   Which kind nature did freely crown
   Pardon me ladies, but it is my duty
   To Extol the Maid of Rockcorry Town.

   V
   David never would have betrayed Uria
   Had he seen her before he viewed his wife
   Or had valiant Jason but once beheld her,
   In the Golden Fleece would never have risked his life
   Now would Prince Paris have Stolen Queen Helen
   And brought the vengeance of Greece all down
   Upon those brave but unhappy Trogans
   Had he seen the Maid of Rockcorry Town.

   VI
   Oh were I a King or a mighty emperor
   With valiant armies at my command
   Or was I master of all the Treasure
   Was ever gained by sea or land
   Or was I owner of the gold of Owe
   Without reluctance I'd leave it down
   And freely range this wide world over
   With the blooming Maid of Rockcorry Town.
