“One morning St Kevin was walking around...”
One morning St Kevin was walking around his churches in Glendalough when he met a man with a scythe and he asked him where he was going with it and he told him that he was going to mow (?) and that (?) he had to mow from the singing of the lark to the lying of the lamb and St Kevin told him that he would never be able (?) to do that anymore because the lark would never sing nor the lamb would never lie around Glendalough again.
