- There was a poet in Ballynooney about one mile from Mullinavat. His name was Patrick Rose. He used to work with the farmers and got a lot of money from visitors for making poems for them.
One day he was passing down the village of Mullinavat and he saw a sign over a Public House door.If you are dry,
Come in and try.
The flavour of my honey,But he wrote under
I am dry,
But I cannot try,
the flavour of your honey, for if I go in,
The bees will sting, for I've got no money. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
