  1. (continued from previous page)
    Nine wounds he did receive
    Before he scorned to yield.
    He lost his trigger finger,
    Shot off by a ball.
    So Willie and his comrades
    were taken after all.
    Farewell to my dear wife,
    And to my children three!
    Farewell to my aged parents!
    Who shed tears of grief for me.
    Mr Carroll, m Rody Kennedy, Lacken, Carrigahirog
    Birr, About 60. Blacksmith. Native of parish. Heard song from parents when a boy
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
