—In a little volume of the Songs of Ireland, forming one of the series called Duffy's Library of Ireland, Dublin, 1845, this song is given. In the introductory notice it is said to be by Mr. R. A. Milliken, a native of Cork. The passage referred to by your correspondent stands thus in this version, which is said to be taken from Croker's Popular Songs of Ireland:—

And nymphs so fair;
Bold Neptune, Plutarch,
And Nicodemus,
All standing naked
