“Mary McMahon, daughter of Eibhlís, was considered handsome, and visits from unmarried men were usual.”
(continued from previous page)Ó se a Mhary dheis Eibhlis
Baothrú gach aon bhuchaill aerach
A bhfuil san áit soNamhad gach chailín
A théid in sa cruinniú

Graidhe párla gach uile
Ná rún leis a fagháil mar chéileLucht cláirseach is fidil

And the heart's delight of all young men
