The next day the man set to work He started with his faok and shovel and a saw on his shoulder to where the rath was. He started digging the ditch of the rath away but he was a long time at it but at last he finished it. When he went home that night says he to himself I'm rid of the noise now. When he went back the next morning the rath was there the same as if it never was stirred.
