    Once upon a time there was a big farmers house. About twelve o' clock in the night a big roaring bull came into the yard.

    Once upon a time there was a big farmers house. About twelve o clock in the night a big roaring bull came into the yard. He was about to knock the house when the cock crew and the bull disappeared, for his time was up when the cock crew. It was the devil came to destroy the house for they were good Catholics.
