  1. Clones' Fair

    Share Share Post
    I washed my feet I combed my hair my hair my blue clothes I put on. I started off for Clones fair, to look about some fun, I went along at my leisure to a mile below Analore. When the figure of a girl I spied no very far before, I sat my hat upon my head and hurried up my pace, "Good morning to you miss" says I and peeped into her face.
    We walked along together, we chatted all the way.
    I brought her into Tommon's hotel to spend a while that day. I called for two glasses of the good old whiskey rare. Heer will I forget the day I spent in Clones fair.
