    There was a man in Ballyling and he had a dash churn.

    There was a man in Ballyling and he had a dash churn. Two men would have to work it. He did not know how to use it.
    One day he put the churn into the cart and went to a very hilly field. He took the churn out of the cart and let it rool down the hill. He followed it down the hill, and when he got to the bottom he found that the churn was made.
