“ In anguish I’ll languish for Gragal ma Chree.
⁠Her lips are like coral, her cheeks like the rose,
Her skin is like lilies, and eyes black as sloes;
She is handsome and proper in every degree,
No female can equal sweet Gragal ma Chree. ”

“ In sorrow for parting from her darling swain.
O cruel parents wherever you be,
That banish’d my darling sweet Jamie from me,
No other man breathing my favour shall gain,
But the pride of all Nature’s my own darling swain. ”

“ Would you have me grow slender when you are at sea,
⁠When supper was over they sat in the hall.

“ THE TERRIBLE LAW.
THE terrible law when it fastens its paw,
On a poor man, it grips him till he’s undone;
And what I am doing may prove to my ruin,
⁠Though rich as the Lord Mayor of Loudon,
Therefore I'll be wary what message I carry,
⁠Unless we first make a sure zure bargain ”

“ I’m so bad with the cholic I connot come down.

⁠The midwife was sent for, when she came there,
She deliver’d the Lady of a beautiful heir,
She delivered the housemaid then with the same,
The cookmaid and Joan made an end of the game. ”

“ On the triumphs of Egypt for ever I’d dwell,
While Nelson and Glory the chorus should swell. etc.
⁠With the treasures, the ships, & the legions of France,
To cherish rebellion, the wretches advance ”
