THE IRISH WEDDING.
Sure wont you hear what roving cheer,
Was spread at ⟨Paddy's⟩ ⟨wedding⟩ O,
And how so gay they spent the day
From churching to be bedding O?
First book in hand-came-Father Quipes,
With the ⟨bride's⟩ dadda the baille, O:
While the chanter with his merry pipes,
Struck up a ⟨lilt⟩ so gaily
Toddery teddery, &c
Now there was Mat and Sturdy Pat
And merry Morgan Murphy O
And Murdoch Mags an Tirloch Skags,
M'Laughlan, ⟨and⟩ Dick Durfey O
And ⟨then the⟩ girls rigg'd out in white,
Led on by Ted O'Reily O;
While the chanter with his merry pipes,
Struck up lilt so gaily O.
Toddery, teddery, &c
When Pat was asked if his love would ⟨last⟩,
The chapel echoed with laughter O,
