Plague on ye, come back!

Och! ye villainous pack,

Ye slaves of the Saxon, ye blind bastard bunch!

Whelps weak and unstable,

I only am able

The Celt-hating Sassenach wholly to s-c-rr-unch!

Yet for me ye won't work,

But sneak homeward and shirk,

Ye've an eye on the ould spider, GLADSTONE, a Saxon!

He'll sell ye, no doubt.
