   4. Thus talking to a cronie,
   The mother oft would say
   “Con gets more like his father
   as day succeeds on day
   He’ll be a great man sometime,
   Mavourneen, that he will
   As great as Squire Wilkie
   That lives on Crohan Hill!”

   Chapter the second.

   5. Now, on the slopes of Crohan,
   Fanned by the Eastern breeze,
   There stood a gorgeous mansion
   Within a clump of trees:
   Wherin lived Squire Wilkie
   A Yeoman Captain’s son,
   And many a bloody deed ‘tis said
   Old Wilkie's sire had done.

   6. A scion of the planters he,
   That grabbing mongrel race
   Imported from the spoiler’s slums
   Our northern lands disgrace
   Thus little of the Squire
   His Celtic neighbours knew
   For ‘twas their pride to keep aloof
   From the vile planter crew

   7. Con Tinney in his rambles
   Was often wont to go,
   Adown the slopes of Crohan
   And there he came to know
   The Squire’s blue-eyed daughter
   With the long black glossy hair,
   And often in the twilight
   Did she steal to meet him there.

   8. Though parents wise and social laws
   Forbade those interviews
   Yet surely ‘twas a lesser crime
   Than true love could excuse
