“Triall ar m'aistear i mí na Bealtaine”
(continued from previous page)Seo é an béarla ar an gceathramhain cheudna
One evening late in the month of April (sic)
I chanced to stray till the hour of nine
In hope to gain a lovely fair maid
The night being hazy and very fine.
Sudden fright and palzy seized me,
In agitation I stood to see,
I soon beheld a man stark naked,
With his killing weapon all bent towards me.
