  2. How Saint Patrick cursed the tailors.
    As St Patrick was travelling on his circuit of Ireland a button one day fell off his coat and he asked a tailor to sew it on again.
    "You are poor enough to do your own business!" answered the tailor.
    "Pride and poverty be your lot for ever!" said Saint Patrick.
