    he said. So whin I looked round me devil a one I saw at all, and when I looked round again me little boyo was gone.
    In a few nights after I was coming the same way, and at the very same place I lost my way, and devil abit of the road I could find. I wandered about for hours, and then I began to shout so that some wan might hear me. Ould Lavey that lived beside me got me on top of the high banks, and how I got up there I never could tell unless I was the brat of a fairy carried me.
