   From east to west in length it ran,
   Full twenty yards and two a spar.
   Its width in feet was twenty three.
   The measure marked on memory.
   The height from floor up to the eave,
   A six foot man his hand would leave.
   The cross-house stood with gable end,
   Against the north and Winter wind,
   With but a window and a door.
   A streamlet crossing in the floor.
   Underneath the wall it ran.
   There might have been a better plan.
   Outside up to the eastern end
   Stony steps you might ascend.
   And enter on a gallery,
   Owned by a decent family.
   Old tottering times have told a tale,
   And now 'tis waiting for prop or nail.
   And frightfully is tumbling o'er
   Beneath the weight of Barney Mhór.
