   II
   Some seventy years have passed away,
   Since John Muldoon in the said place,
   Put on the still, upon a day,
   That seemed destined for luck and peace;
   And many of his neighbours came,
   And were partaking of his cheer,
   Until a voice did thus proclaim, -
   The still hunters are almost here.
   III
   The news plunged all in deep despair,
   Because escape they could not then,
   As they had been in front and rave,
   Compassed with ruthless armed men;
   Those law officials were to blame,
   Their brutal might they showed too soon,
   For one of them took steady aim,
   And shot the faultless John Muldoon.
   IV
   His sister who was standing by,
   And saw her brother's life blood flow,
   A missle quickly she let fly,
   Which laid the vile assassin low;
   Into her father's house she got,
   And there protection sought to find,
   But oh! that neat beloved cot,
   Was instantly to flames consigned.
