- (continued from previous page)249ContinuedI hope that we will live to see
All heresy cut down
That our Fenian boys can whet their pikes
On every orange bone.
We are the boys who will show them sport
All with our Papist steel
We will, be revenged of 98
And dearly love the green.At the gates of Hell stands Belzebob
For to let in Luther's flock
It is night and day they'e going that way
Forever there to stop.
It is when no Papist need apply
Or even show their face.
For it was on this world our freedom fell
God mark them with his grace.
Hats off three cheers for the Shelmaliers
And for Father Murphy too
Not forgetting Father Dwyer
That was stationed in Carnew
Who first pulled down their orange flag
So glorious to be seen
When our Fenian boys mentained their cause
And raised the Irish Green
