    (continued from previous page)
    getting good at it. Anyhow he couldn't stop kicking, something was keeping him at it, and at last he heard the cuch crowing not fair from where he was and all the fairies rushed off towards the rath. He was so tired that he wasn't able to walk home and he lay down on the field and remained there until morning.

    There was another man that never saw anything..

    There was another man that never saw anything in his life and one night he was going along the road and he found himself walking right into a fairy rath that was in a field by the side of the road. He didn't want to go into the rath at all, but he found himself being dragged along by main force and he was kept in the rath for a couple of hours, but he saw no fairies.
