  1. (continued from previous page)
    While "Brennan" took a hone.

    And "Campbells" razor he did edge.
    And left the bright blade keen
    Healy kicked and cursed old "Vic."
    And Brennans "Kinsale Green."

    Miss "Ann" was straining her keen ears
    But all she heard that night,
    Was greyhound pups a whining,
    downing the pale moonlight.

    And "Healy Mike" says God save me
    my son is on the beer.
    He'll workno more for "Brennan."
    Till the falling of the year.
