    “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(?)
    (A crow taking a potato)

    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
    (A bottle of stout)
