- A woman was stolen away by the fairies and one day a girl was washing clothes in a stream near a fort and she saw smoke rising out of the fort and she heard a woman rocking a cradle inside and she singing
"A Bhean a tíghe éistigheann gheal thú Seotú leo thú lú leo.
Is mó cúl, cúl donn deas thú seotú leo thú lú leo.
Is mó blágárd isteac 's amac leat seotú leo thú lú leo."
The woman told the girl to tell her brothers to come on a certain night that she would be out driving with the fairies that she would be riding on the third horse and to make a snap at her and she passing and they would have her. The brothers came and did so and they brought her home with them and she lived for twelve years afterwards.- Collector
