    There was a man by the name of Paul Roche from Barmoney, Bree, an' he was comin' home from ramblin' wan night.

    When he came to a gravel hole, a barrel of fire rolled out over the ditch, an' Paul ran like anything, 'till he came to a house, and a fella by the name of a house, and a fella by the name of Mick Kenny lived in it Mick was gone to bed an' Paul burst in the door, an' just as he went in he fainted, an' he was sick at this house for a whole week.
