He's settin' in his parlor, writin' let
theirs to tn queen, be hivins, askin'
afther her health. He was firm TIL
north of Ireland two years ago, an not
so far north ayether-just far enough
north FIR to be on good terms with
Derry an not far enough to be bad
frinds with Limerick He was raised
on butthermilk an haggis, an he
dhrank his Irish nate with dash iv
orange bitthers in it. He's been NOV
