    (continued from previous page)
    And all along its shore,
    And I think it’s five miles distant
    From the Hills of Barnesmore.
    VII
    Kind readers of these verses,
    I hope you’ll me excuse
    For the giving of my name to you
    I utterly refuse;
    Sometimes I’m on the ocean,
    And sometimes on the shore,
    But my rural habitation
    Is on the Hills of Barnesmore.
