   As Paddy was walking he met with the rector
   He being in this carriage he seemed very blithe
   "Where are you going?" says the rector to Paddy
   "I'm going to you honour to pay you the tithe
   The rector he stood a short while & he smiled.
   Says he to poor Paddy, "You thought you'd be free
   But when you go home you can sing & carouse
   'Bout your "Old Constitution", "unite" & 'Go Free' "

   Pat put his hand in his pocket to give him the money
   Says he to himself, I'm a hell of a rogue
   To give a man money can drive in such splendour
   Especially when I look down at my brog."
   With the hard frost his Lips were a nipping
   His shirt like a "hippen" hung over his knee
   The threw back his hair with a very good air
   And Sing, "Erin go bragh" like a bird on a tree.

   Down to Liscarry the next day he burried
   To get a big pike with a hatchet & cleek
   The times were so bad it was his resolution
   To reach Wicklow mountains that evening week
   Where there's no tithe, no procter no rector
   Nor the devil a scraw ___ to be seen
   Where liberty ranges we feel there's no danger
   Where there's caps red and yellow and jackets of green.
