  1. (continued from previous page)
    continued until the only son of a widowed mother died. She was so broken-hearted with grief that she could not leave the corpse alone. She remained there until midnight and then she heard a voice saying to her :-
    When mortal eye our work shall spy,
    When mortal ear our dirge shall hear,
    The burial of the Cantillons is o'er.
