“Long ago there lived a king named Padraig O'Rogan who ruled over Kerry . . .”
Long ago there lived a king named Padraig O'Rogan who ruled over Kerry. One day he said he would give one of his kingdoms to anyone that would race his own champion runner to Dublin.A man named Leg-in-a sling said that he would race him. So off raced the two of them cos-in-airde and Led-in-a sling was first. I am done said the champion, sit down and rest a bit and the champion struck him with his wind and he fell asleep.Then the champion was first and Leg-in-a sling ran faster and faster and he passed the champion on the road. When Leg-in-a sling and the champion came back to the king's palace Leg-in-a sling was first and the king gave him one of his kingdoms.- Collector
