  1. (continued from previous page)
    They mingled the rich with the poor,
    And homewards half dead, the old Bailiff was led
    Like a corpse upon Dan Murphy's door.
    4. Then we swore we would save Dan or perish
    And the barricade still stands secure
    Though I doubt we'll be hung, for the water we "flung"
    At the crowd outside Dan Murphy's door.
