  1. When the feast was over the former owner of the bullock came the way. She regretted having given the beast and asked St. Patrick to give him back the animal. The saint told the people to gather up the bones. They did so, and he raised his hand over them and the bullock came to life again. The man / people drove him into (his field) the farmer’s field. When the owner came along he went into the field to see his cattle and count them. The bullock rushed upon, tossed him in the air and killed him.
