  1. A certain servant boy lived and worked for a master who didn't treat him as he should to day.
    The master killed a pig and when cured he boiled a fine pot of meat and cabbage for the family. The boy's teeth watered for some of what the pot contained but in vain. Instead he got potatoes and sour milk while they feasted on pork. Sgiollán time came and he got a bag of seed with directions where to set them. Off he went and made a hole in the gorc and spilled on his bag of seed in the hole saying:-"all the seed in one hole and all the meat in one pot"
