“As I looked out my window I saw a wonderful thing.”
As I looked out my window
I saw a wonderful thing
I saw John Hogarty Pogarty
Taking convaniently(?)
And if I had my gun
I would not let John Hogarty Pogarty
Take convaniently (?)
I went out to a neighbour's house
to get the loan of a wind blow
To shoot Ferly (?) Fongo(?)

As I went out a guttery gap
I met my uncle Davy
I cut his throat and sucked his blood
And left him lying easy

“What is full and holds more?”
What is full and holds more?
