was ever trodden by the Sassenach tyrants
and murderers; And, morover, when the
Protestant robber ana urute in Ireland
shall be murdered and driven Into the seA

tige of the accursed blood of the heretic
adulterer, Henry VIII., and possess our

our island of saints Old Ireland la the
chains of bondage.drlven us from her shore,
exiles Into foreign lands. I will wade In the
