1. A Local Song (ar lean)

   “Near Aughnadowry about six or seven miles from Arva some years ago a farmer had an ass who was well known in the neighborhood on accent of his thieving habits.”

   But still they said the price was high
   The owner said this was a lie.
   For four crisp pounds and three half crowns
   Likewise three and twenty rounds,
   This ass was sold and likewise bought
   And home to Aughnadowry brought.
   Tis there he roams and drinks his fill
   And on potatoes dines at will.
   'Twould do you good some summer's day
   To hear his loud incessant bray,
   Peal oer Géag and Cornhill
   And rise and echo farther still.
   So now methinks tis quite high time
   To close my weak and watery rhyme.
