    (continued from previous page)
    5th Stanza
    I love to roam the meadows
    And stroll through the boreen's
    Where they cook the Limerick Bacon
    In a skillet full of greens.

    6th
    Where they serve the harvest dinner
    That is sandwiched in between
    A half a tierce of porter
    And a jug of pure potheen

    Composed by
    J. H. Fleming
    U.S.A.
    formerly of Main St. Ballylanders Co. Limerick where his father, Tom Fleming kept a public house and grocery (1929)

    Received the above from
    E. J. Ryan,
    Relieving Officer,
    Ballylanders.
    to whom Fleming sent his odes from U.S.A. 1929
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
