1. The Racehorse Called Funny Eye Swiftness

   You inspiring lasses that dwell on Pyrnasses.
   Be friend these few verses I mean to compose.
   While here I endeavour to set forth the praise.
   Of a huntsman so famous the nation well knows.

   All round Kilatoher this hero was noted.
   James Smith that brave sportsman and pride of the land.
   His high flying courser, she's highly reputed.
   For fame undisputed
   Gained on Lavey strand.

   At sweet Killinkere, she was unparalleled there
   And st Ballyjamesduff, she did darken their eyes.
   At Lavey and Cavan and Ballanagh races
   And at Derrensbridge she obtained every prize.

   Mc Kernans and Gaffneys, she lightened their purses
   The Reillys will curse her for gaining such fame.
   Through sweet Kilatoher long years may she flourish
   To banter these eagers and bring them to shame.

   The speed of this racer deserves admiration
   With vicious patience she glides o'r the plane
   Like ancient Fadacious or [?] speed of Pyrnasses
   At every encounter she always did gain.
