- On a cold Winters night when people gather around a blazing fire they play many different games.
They play one game and all who sit around the fire stretch out their feet. Then one of them says this rhyme:-
Lurabóg Larabóg buidhe
Néill. Níl an príobán
prióbán súileach súilleac
seincear seicneach milleach
Suiace. buille beag de púcaín mar sé do leas. Do leac-cois deas. Aci cuir isceach do phéicín.- Collector
