Concerning of three young men | |
One night in January | |
According laws contrary | |
A-poaching went straightway | |
They were inclined to ramble | |
Amongst the trees and brambles | |
A-firing at the pheasants | |
Which brought the keepers nigh | |
The keepers dared not enter | |
Nor cared the woods to venture | |
But outside near the centre | |
In them old bush they stood | |
The poachers they were tired | |
And to leave they were desired | |
At at last young Parkins fired | |
And spilled one keeper's blood | |
Fast homeward they were making | |
Nine pheasants they were taking | |
When another keeper faced them | |
They fired at him also | |
He on the ground lay crying | |
Just like some person dying | |
With no assistance nigh him | |
May God forgive their crime | |
Then they were taken with speed | |
All for that inhuman deed | |
It caused their hearts to bleed | |
For their young tender years | |
There seen before was never | |
Three brothers tried together | |
Three brothers condemned for poaching | |
Found guilty as they stood | |
Exiled in transportation | |
Two brothers they were taken | |
And the other hung as a token | |
May God forgive their crime |

Concerning of three young men | |
One night in January | |
According laws contrary | |
Apoaching went straightway | |
They were inclined to ramble | |
Amongst the trees and brambles | |
Afiring at the pheasants | |
Which brought the keepers nigh | |
The keepers dared not enter | |
Nor cared the woods to venture | |
But outside near the centre | |
In them old bush they stood | |
The poachers they were tired | |
And to leave they were desired | |
At at last young Parkins fired | |
And spilled one keeper' s blood | |
Fast homeward they were making | |
Nine pheasants they were taking | |
When another keeper faced them | |
They fired at him also | |

Just like some person dying | |
