   Adhmaid

   They couldn't get a stock for the big wheel of the mill in Araglen, one time; and they had to go to the Glen of Aherlous for timber to make. There was mighty big trees there wan time.
   There was an old song about it:

   Shiubhlaig na ceardaite ceithre
   árda na hÉireann
   Coillte Chuain Daíbhis, bánse (Bansha)
   's na gaortha
   'Na Siubhail Riamh thaínig gur
   Thánadar sa tairbh so
   Mul Saoir, Mul Ceardta, ilár
   Coille Sheámais

   Sa Ghleann Atherla thá siad ar
   aílneacht na hÉireann
   An beech 's an Már 's a' clair chun na
   h. éadann (n-éadan?)
