          'O would the God above

          To cut the throat of those English dogs,
          That shot our Irish leaders'

          Verse by Mícheál Ó Baoghaláin (Meath):

          'Wherever the forces of crown assemble
          Whether on land, or sea, or the air
          Strike them down O Lord
          Strike them down
          And may their bones be ground into manure
          And spread over the land to grow crops for the poor.'
