- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)the tramp. "Keep your eye out" says Carroll fear any of 'em would be coming." And the tramp would go to the door and look around and while he'd be looking Carroll would put in a few big handfulls of lime. The tramp had some bran and meal in the bag already that he was after getting in another place, and Carroll mixed the lime on it.
"You've enough now, God bless you" says the tramp.
The tramp threw the bag on his shoulder and hit off to Carroll's public house of Clongeen.
"Would you buy some flour off me?" says the tramp. "I will to be sure says Carroll.
He got the scales to weigh it & heeled it out, and sure the lime nearly smothered what was in the house.
Well, I believe the curses of the tramp bet all that evening. And he expecting that he'd have four or five bottles of porter out of the price of the "flour".
