    To run quicker than ever. Then the priest came back again and asked him to come again, and he said he would do all the way to scariff with him if he would let him sit behind him. The priest said he was welcome, So they rose away and going in towards Scariff the priest said that there were thousands of fairies before and after them. Then the man began to curse them and would not go home until morning.
