- About 60 years ago there was an old custom in the part of the country among the people who used to attend wakes at night. Some used to play games as "Hiving the Bees" "The Flower" "Selling the Oats" "The Badger" Riddles and rhymes were also given out. The following is an example.
Here's to the ship that sailed from Flanders
That carried the blacksmith, hammer, tongs and anvils
That made the spade both stiff and strong
That dug the grave both wide and long
That buried the huntsman hounds and horn
That hunted the fox from under the thorn
That killed the hen that hatched the cock
That crew early in the morning
That wakened the priest all shaved and shorn
That married the lad all tattered and torn
To the made that was left forlorn
That milked the cow with the crumbly horn
That tossed the dog right over the barn
That killed the cat that worried the rat
That cut the string that tied the sack
That lay in the house that Jack built(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
