Their efforts were in vain;
The judge decreed that he should die
A traitor to the crown,
No more to see his native hills
Or visit Bantry town.
XIII
The names of Dennis and his band
Are loathsome now to hear,
They dare not visit Bantry
Their hearts are full of fear;
The grass they tread will wither
And never again will grow,
When trampled by Iscariots
Like Dennis and Dukelow.
XIV
Now like the owl that shuns the day
When darkness is around,
They creep from their hiding places
Where reptiles doth abound;
May Cadogan's spirit rest in peace
On that bright heavenly shore,
Before that court above the clouds
Where sorrow is no more.
