    (continued from previous page)
    And I'll run up the village,
    For a stroke-all and a pike
    We'll bag a dozen salmon,
    And no one will it know,
    And we'll take them to your father's cottage,
    In the Vale of Lackaroe.

    This seagull was so secret,
    Sure no one saw the light,
    The Captain and Miss Eily,
    They are lovers since that night
    The blessings of a marriage,
    They very soon shall know,
    And they both shall live so happily
    In the Vale of Lackaroe.
