    And freed our clergyman
    It was in a few minutes after, Poor Reilly he did fall
    Likewise poor Fitzsimons which grieves us one and all
    And it's on the streets of Muff their bodies lay,
    Till they could bleed no more.
    His funeral next day to the chapel of Killan
    There were forty thousand Catholics with a white scarf on each man".
