    Part of verse (X)
    I saw from where I took my stand
    A sight extremely great & grand
    The Land League force was come in view
    & in hot haste advancing too
    To encounter their unGodly foes
    Of what I saw I now disclose.
    Equipped & furnished in the van
    With scythes & forks with every man
    With courage & determination
    They supplied the want of organization.
