He asked the priest to announce the lois of the coat, at the church, me Sunday- The priest who was of a practiced tum of mind di so in the following words:
    "Do caill Pádruig mór ó Ros Mór
    Caill sé a córa mór ar bolg an bórair móir
    bí sé aige ag an ndroicead mór
    Níl airnne beag ná mór go bfuaireas a
    Iuairisc maid
    Mac mór é a dualgas maid."
