    (continued from previous page)
    his foundation we never did stray,
    Without stain or blemish we have preserved it,
    And will do so until the Judgement day,
    4th
    Now in addition to this Holy Mission,
    Our Parish Clergy deserve applause,
    Blessed Father Commerford and Fr. Darcy,
    That's working hard in God's holy cause,
    For zeal and piety, you'll find no equals,
    Their kind demanor has won renoun,
    With such holy teachers to pray and lead us,
    God's Faith in Erin will never go down.
