    It was driven in,
    "Go take him now and drown him"
    Said Rory to his men, and only fearing prosecution]
    I would surely spare your men."
    Into a pool of water this wicked body was threw
    To sweet Lough Rynne, and Donegal,
    He now, must bid adieu.
    Many a fine family he forced to emigrate
    And more in poverty at they to wait.
    More destitute and naked were sent
    to their cold graves
    With hearts and aspiration their
    Sire's home to leave.
    Manor Vaughan's mansion the place is very grand,
    Cannot compare in beauty's fair.
    With Lough Rynne's lovely strand.
