1. The Knockalough Lake

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   (I)

   You men of Kilmihil did you hear of late
   That Davy was fencing the Knockalough Lake
   A despatch sent to Nenagh made him still stand
   To the honoured John Boucher the Lord of the land.

   
   (II)

   Mr Meehan came forward and frankly declared
   The strand was in common
   No rent for it paid
   So all passers by to the Kilmihil fair
   Can water their cattle and horses exhale

   
   (III)

   No sting-fly no lizard, no wizard , no toad,
   No reptile, no vulture, no monster, no goad.
   Over night comes the "Graces" and Elysian bands
   Addressing the water and crystalline strands

   
   (IV)

   Our doctors and vendors in the newspapers state
   By pills and their unctions they cure all disease
   Escalapus has written of fictions beware
   But frequent the water of the Knockalough Lake

   
   (V)

   Calipso Themus Libertine and Sayers
   Flora Aurora Mintrvia(?) and Hefe
   Their celestian mansions they will often forsake
   To taste the pure water of the Knockalough Lake
