- (continued from previous page)We also had them from Aughavas and Mohill too
They were there from Drumbad, Curraghnawall and Kiltyhugh,
From Meenaghill and Callowhill, Cloverhill and Ballinamore,
All joined our ranks to drive those swanks
From the village of Newtowngore.VIAway to hell or to Connaught
Was their cry of long ago,
Oh! But not to hell, But, Connaught,
Did those poor Papists go.
And in Connaught now and ever
Will their descendants be, galore
To rout the Orange rabble
From the village of Newtowngore.VIISo to conclude and make an end,
Give ear to what I say.
The Orange men were well prepared
To have a glorious day.
Without further talk we stopped their walk
As our grand sires did of yore,
And we gave them a touch of Ardrum Hill
At the village of Newtowngore.- Collector
