   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   There were two poor scholars going around here long ago. Wan fellow was Doyle and the other fellow was Timmons.
   Wan day their two met for the first time.
   "Are you the Doyle
   That never left your native soil?" says Timmons
   "Yes, and you're the timorous Timmons
   That wouldn't ate a herring with a woman's trimmings": says Doyle.
   Wan night Doyle went into a house for a night's lodging. At that time the hens used to sleep in the house on a roost over the door.
   As Doyle was going in anyway wan of the hens dirted down on him and he walking in.
   He stood for a minute and looked up at the hen on the roost:
   "You silly creature" (says he)
   Devoid of wit
   How dare you on your neighbour ....
   Now to reward you for your pains
   I'll take you from the collar beams
   So he up with his stick and levelled her.
   Killed her stone dead.
