    On a cold November evening as the wind did highly blow. ...

    On a cold November's evening as the wind did highly blow
    I heard those Dooras lassies to Thonack (?) they did go
    And they were invited for that night by the damsel Norah Mór
    When I came there upon the scene in pardon to implore
    I saw the Quins from Nogara and Rick Burke's two sons from Caher Mór
    That white angel from Lough Corrough was plainly dressed in white
    The most of my opinion she spread the gazers sight
    That proudly Glynn and sisters that came from Nogara town
    And that other subject Delegate who lived a bit further down
    This verse was composed by the Sullivans from Chrushooha (?).
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
