  1. A person was dying and the people of the house sent for the priest. When he was going to the house he heard beautiful singing of the Colleen Dhas Cruite na mbó.
    When the song was finished he went to see who was singing and all he saw was a hound. When he went to the house the person was dead and the priest condemned the song.
