    Long ago in the parish of Kilcummin there were two great dancers. Peg Leary and Peg Doody. They were the two best dancers in the parish of Kilcummin. One day they had a contest to see which of them was the better for dancing. They came to a house and there were steps they had to dance. They soaped a table and Peg Doody was the first to dance, she got on the soaped table and danced. Peg Leary was next and she danced also, so they were as good as each other.
