    like to get her back. Maíre told him that on the next evening so many horses would pass by his house, and that his wife would be riding on the last white horse, and she told him to grab her, and take her with him.
    He stood by the end of the house the next evening and the horses passed by. His wife was on the last white horse, and he tried to grab her, but the life fell from his hands and legs and he went home without her.
