“There was a woman one time lived in the County Wexford.”
(ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)she was not in it. He went out for the scythe and came in again and cut the head off her. Then he hung her up in the secret room. The next morning the window and her daughter were awakened by the sound of the the bull tearing up the garden. The young girl rushed out before the mother could stop her and hit the bull a [welt?] of a shovel. The shovel stuck [?]to the bull and she stuck to the shovel and away goes the bull across the country and never stopped til he came to the mansion. Then he changed himself into a man and told her what she was to do, not to go into the secret room. She said she wouldn't and he went out to hunt. He came back after his this day and she never had gone into the room, so he told her that she was the girl he wanted so he married her. Then he gave her a wand and she brought all the dead girls in the room back to life. He sent them all home only his wife's two sisters. He kept them and sent for their mother and they were very well off then and they lived happily ever afterwards.
