"You've heard, I suppose, long ago, How the snakes, in a manner most antic, He march'd to the County Mayo, And trundled them into th' Atlantic. Hence not to use water for drink The people of Ireland determine; With mighty good reason, I think, Since St Patrick has fill'd it with vermin, And vipers, and other such stuff."
William Maginn
