- (continued from previous page)Where the buglers are waiting in splendid rotation
All most amazing to hear the first news
The guides with their ponies preparing before them
The cannon-man minding his powder and fuel.

The celebrated Kate Kearney's with her shop neatly varnished
On the brink of the water so merely is on
With the goats-milk and whiskey all porter and biscuits
For to nourish them all as they gallop along

Let us now come to Beaufort where you oft had resorted
That centre so noted for fame and renown
Then the beautiful building lies peacefully under
The seat of Judge Day by the banks by the banks of the Laune.

It was there I halted I was so exhausted
From boating and walking as you may have seen
So I had a few shillings both copper and silver
And at Patsy Breac's counter I went on a spree.
