“There were two girls one time going to the shop in Ballyhogue..”
(continued from previous page)to her from the corner not to drink it at all. So she made some excuse and laid down the mug on the table and both of them left the house and came out. They were talking about the wonderful house and wondering they never saw it before, when they looked around and they could see no house at all. They walked along and didn't know what to say for a long time when the girl who got the drink said she was twice as thirsty as she was before she got the drink. So she went into the next farmer's house and got another drink. Then they went home and this girl who was thirsty got into her bed and never got out of it until she was carried out. They were very unlucky to go into the house at at all.
