'Arrah father," says I, you're a frolicsome elf,"But be a good boy and take care of yourself.With your toorle lol, &c.
I was going, but ould father Murphy cried "stay."We'll settle the matter, I'll tell you the way"I'll marry you straight, and then Barney you know,—"Thankee Father," says I, "but I'd much rather go."So to ould father Murphy I bade good night,And to Judy I said, what you'll own was puite right,"Ararh Judy," says I, "you're a frolicsome elf,"But I'll be a good boy, and take care of self."With your toorle lol, &c.

I Dream'd a Dreary Dream.

I dream'd a dreary dream last night,God keep us a' frae sorrow,I dream'd I pu'd the birk sae green,Wi' my true love on Yarrow.
