   Come kind Cupid assist my genius
   While I endeavour to set forth
   The base qualities of a Baitín Bailiff
   Who in this neighbourhood does resort
   is his habitation.
   He's well known to the country round
   As being the nearest character and vilest traitor
   That ever trod on the Irish ground.
   His name to mention it is my intention
   It is I do declare.
   And when I give you his full dimensions.
   You'll love him no better I do declare.
   As for Caulcraft Carey or Marawood either
   They were not such foes to our noble cause
   As this vile traitor the scruff of nature
   And a filthy member of the Penal Laws.
   No greater pest as I give full test.
   Of this vile badger can be found.
   No Whig or Tory now named in story
   For such acts of baseness were never bound.
   By base contrivance and acts most shameful.
   He strove, his neighbours to destroy.
   With threatening speeches he did address them
   And both day and night he did them annoy
   It is to beggar some of his peasants
   That in this neighbourhood do reside.
