It was just about this pariod of the fine ould anshint history

Of the murnful earth, that Pat O'Toole, the Irishman was born,

He gev the information,

In a noisy intimation

Of his presence, rather early, on a Whitsun Monday morn,

But it's not all out particular, or anything material,

To the thruth consarnin' all about the narrative I've spun,

The story of his birth, or the mirth

Upon this earth,

That shook his father's rafthers, with rousin' rounds of fun.
