    Dromod.
    He had a desire to live in Clonbo. One day he tool a notion and came there to build a castle. When he had it up to about the fifth course he went home to Drumhaire. That night the fairies came and knocked his beautiful buidling. He came back and saw his building knocked.
    He started to build again and when he had it up to the tenth course he left again for Dromhaire. When he went the fairies came again and knocked his house.
    Then he left Clonbo and never returned. Then there was a song composed and named "Half pennies beautiful building".
