  1. An Habit Shirt

    Féach Mavis do scríobh na haitheannta
    'S gur gealladh tabharthas dé do
    Len a shlait gur déigibh an fharraige
    S a chamtha do thug saor leis
    An bhean do thug deoch leanna dho
    Nuair a chuaidh ar dtír go hÉigipt
    go deimhin ní raibh aon hata uirthe
    Ná Habit Shirt mar léine.
    Féach Neóá bhí ar an dtalamh so
    'Nar tugadh rabha roim Rí dho
    A long a bheith go ceartuighthe
    I gcóir na tuille tréine
    An bhean do rug chun sleachta leis.
    Chun staidamhaint ar árd éigin[?]
    go deimhin ní raibh aon hata uirthe
    Ná Habit Shirt in aon chor
    do casadh cailín deas orm.
    bhí singeamhail maigeamhail aerach
    bhí péidhre gloves is hata uirthi
    'S Habit Shirt dá réir sin.
    bhí stocaí lín go greannta uirthe
    Agus fáinní ar a méaraibh
    Nuair a dubhairt-sa léith "Goodmorrow Miss'
    Sé dubhairt sí "thugais théitheach"
