Ignis Fatuus + 

Weep, weep, each loyal partisan, + 

For Buckley, king of hearts; + 

A most accomplished man; a man + 

Of parts⁠—of foreign parts. + 

Long years he ruled with gentle sway, + 

Nor grew his glory dim; + 

And he would be with us to-day + 

If we were but with him. + 

Men wondered at his going off + 

In such a sudden way; + 

’Twas thought, as he had come to scoff + 

He would remain to prey. + 

Since he is gone we’re all agreed + 

That he is what men call + 

A crook: his very steps, indeed, + 

Are bent⁠—to Montreal. + 

So let our tears unhindered flow, + 

Our sighs and groans have way: + 

It matters not how much we O!⁠— + 

The devil is to pay. + 
