    went to Kilrush one day and having taken two much drink crossed the Ferry on the way home.
    He lost his way and went into this fort-Lios na Fearainne and slept the night there.
    It is a very bushy place and when morning came and the sun shone through the bushes he got the inspiration and composed the beautiful poem "Cois leasa is me go h-Uaigneach".
