FRANK
Hence, care and strife! nor damp our joy,
Come friendship, mirth and love,
And every sordid, base alloy,
Let's from our bosoms move;
For was our gold but Irish brass,
Good humour's stamp can make it pass;
With a fa, la, la, &c.
FELIX.
To London town our Irish wags,
A fortune hunting run,
And then with heaps of shining bags,
Their paltry souls are won.
HELEN AND ROSA
If Love could e'er unite with gain,
Here, lads, come find our golden vein.
With a fa, la, la, &c.
BILLY.
I've learnt the letters in my book,
By post you've letters sent,
But 'till of late, you're such a rook,
You know not what they meant.
SULL.
All letters nonsense are to me,
But letters call'd G, O, L, D.
With a fa, la, la, &c.

Redmond
When young they call'd me roaring boy,
For blows I took delight in,
My drum I thought a darling toy,
Game chicks I set to fighting;
My play was lusty cudgel raps,
When not my gig top lashing,
The girls I set to pulling caps,
My work was Barley threshing;
The gossips say, ay, they'll be sworn,
A dreadful night, when I was born,
The moon in clouds, her face did muffle,
The elements were all at scuffle;
The brook into a torrent swelled,
A rock was split, an oak was felled;
The neighbours scream'd, ""the houses shake,""
The Banshee moan'd, the earth did quake;
A Raven sung a thunder peal!
For then first throbb'd an heart of steel.
At speed I ride, it does me good,
If on a horse that's vicious,
From wrangling Bull, a slice my food,
Such beef-stake how delicious!
Of all my liquors punch I love,
Sweet contradiction jumble,
With joy the craggy cliffs I rove,
So winds and waters rumble.
