“Trí namid an fhata”
Trí namid an fhata (3 enemies of potato)
Sioc. Muc agus sgudán
Frost injuries them and a pig does away with them and one who had a sgudán for dinner will eat more pops than with any other dish. - A lighted candle is taken to where cow is; this is raised over her back, brought under belly over and under 3 times while saying in the name of "Father, Son + Holy Ghost."
