“Long long ago there lived near Edgeworthstown a man called Mickie the Rover.”
(continued from previous page)were fruits, cakes, and wines and other nice things.
There he was asked to join in the feast. He did not know what to eat. However he ate and drank until he became exhausted. Drinking too much he soon became sleepy.
He thought he heard the chief Druid saying "Herooch". The light went out and he found the Druid and the fairies had disappeared. He slept some time (and when awoke) and when he awoke he found himself sitting under a whin bush. Getting up he went home dressed in his shabby clothes sore and sad.
