“One night long long ago as a man by the name of William Hickey...”
One night long long ago as a man by the name of William Hickey was coming home from Greenfields where they used be playing cards.
He went through the fields for a short-cut and there was a big long wood from Greenfields up to his own house.
When he was about middle ways a big pig came out of the wood and the pig spread out about twelve feet long. He got a terrible fright and he ran home.
