Quirk describes it as \u0027A sort of Translation from Mr Edward Fargher\u0027s versee\u0027, and is indeed more a transliteration than a translation. Faragher\u0027s poem\u0027On the Running Down of the Lugger Loive by the Ship Oakworth\u0027, on which Quirk\u0027s version is based, appeared in Mona\u0027s Herald on October 1st 1874. Quirk writes to the Editor of Mona\u0027s Herald; \u0027SIR,\u2014In compliance with a request expressed in the Herald of the 1st instant, I send you these lines which may be interesting to some of your readers.\u0027. This is marked as a Manx original, but is a transliteration from the English.",
