  1. Once upon a time there was a leprachaun who lived in a glen. One day a girl went for a walk and she met the leprachaun. She took his pot of gold off him and went away singing as she went. When she arrived home she looked at the pot of gold and instead of gold, she had leaves in the pot. She said she would never go to the glen again.
