    One day he was out riding he met a fortune teller called Kitty the Blue. He stopped and asked Kitty the cause of his horse's sickness. “You may thank yourself for it Father” says she “Do you remember the day you were riding down “Stream Hill” and you let your horse take a drink. Well as he was drinking you looked back on him and said “What a fine horse is he” but you never said “God Bless him” Turn back now and spit on him and say God Bless”. The priest did so and his horse was cured.
