  2. Near Monaseed of a summers morning,
    Our boys did halt a rest to take,
    The Ancient Britons in their uniform
    On Slievebawn Mountain a great show did make,
    They thought we'd run when we saw them coming,
    But it was but play to our heroes brave.
    We marched before them unto Ballyellis,
    That was the place we laid out their graves.
