1. A Local Song

   “It was on the eight of October in the year of eighty four”

   It was on the eight of October in the year of eighty four,

   That day will be remembered around green Erin's shore

   When the Patriots of Ireland with their hearts to Erin wed

   Assembled in their thousands with Joe Biggars at their head

   There were many in Virginia Town whose heads were old and grey

   They were never known to witness such a grand and glorious play

   Both young and old I do behold were advancing towards the scene

   And each one wore or rather bore some emblems of the green

   Our heroes came with fife and drum from far-famed Killinkere

   While the Bailieboro' brass band played sweet music in the air

   These bands I wee all wore the green and with their master's hand

   They played the Harp of Tara's Halls, and God save Ireland

   When we approached this good old town to view the gladdening scene
