    Teampall Fé Thuinn. This burial continued until the only son of a widowed mother died. She was so broken hearted with grief that she would not leave the corpse alone. She remained there until midnight then she heard a voice saying to her.
    When mortal eyes our work shall spy
    When mortal ears our dirge shall hear.
    The burial of the Cantillons is e'or.
