Once upon a time there was a cobbler living in Castle Kevin, and he was very fond of money but he did not like to work. One night some man man were in his house, and they told him there was a crock of gold in a certain rath. The next day the cobbler went to the rath to look for it. When he went a little man dressed in red came to him and showed him a tree the gold was under, when he had dug for sometime he saw a boy ther ewere an awl and a last and a hammer in it, and there was a piece of paper in it. The words that were written on it were - use these tools and you will be rich.Eilis Ni Droin Maoilin Raidroma
