    The hammer broke
    The head in pieces flew
    The inside was inferior
    While the outside seemed quite new
    The handle now is all that's left
    Since all the rest have fled
    So now my friends to make amends
    Please send me out another head
    This man bought a hammer in Granard many years ago. He broke the head of the hammer with the first stroke and he sent into Granard for a new head.
