    One night as the cocks they were crowing, ¶ A loud knocking came to my door...

    (continued from previous page)
    For we've heard that far over the mountains
    You keep here a little "Shibeen".
    Twas quickly she filled up the bumpers
    "Heres a health to all comrades" she cries
    And for those that are battling for freedom
    On the green hills of Erin they died.
    "Heres a health to the gallant Sean Treacy.
    "Sparkie" Breen, and the bold Cathal Brugh
    To the bold and the fearless young Lacy.
    All died to give Ireland her due.
