The holes from which the mud was scooped filled with water thus forming Lough Allen. Sliab an Iarainn mountain bears a great name For hunting and fouling and all sorts of game. For hunting and fouling and growling also The finest of berries on this mountains does grow On the top of this mountains a castle does stand Framed all with ivy and its back to the strand At the foot of this mountain the Shannon does flow And the boat that sails on it to Limerick does go.
