- (continued from previous page)Be ever heard in Doneraile
May patriots kings and common weal
Despise and harass Doneraile
May loudest thunders ring a peal
To blind and deafen Doneraile
May vengeance fall at head and tail
From North to South at Doneraile
May profit light and tardy Sale
Still damp the trade of Doneraile
May fame resound a dismal tale
When she lights on Doneraile.
May Egypt's plagues at once prevail
To thin the knaves of Doneraile.
May frost and snow and sleet & hail
Benumb each joint at Doneraile.
May wolves and bloodhounds trace & hail
The cursed crew of Doneraile.
May Oscar with his fiery tail
To atoms thresh all Doneraile.
May enemy mischief fresh and [?]
Abide henceforth in Doneraile.
May all from Belfast to Kinsale
Scoff, curse and damn you Doneraile
May neither flour not oatenmeal
Be found or known in Doneraile.
May want and woe each joy curtail
That e'er was known in Doneraile(continues on next page)
