So give us our coveted “Home Rule” again,

With a Parliament pledged to destroy British thrall;

And Charles Stewart Parnell as king over all,

Home Rule, rule at home! &c.

Roggee Shurt.


When worries and creditors force you to groan,

For safety and freedom there’s nought like Boulogne,

In vain will bum-bailiffs or writs seek you there,

Very short is the distance, very cheap is the fare.
