    When the old man heard that, he began to roar and to scream. He went out in the garden vexed, to see if the story was true or not. He forgot to close the box. He was only outside the door when the Leipreachán jumped out of the box and ran away. He was breaking his heart laughing. He went to his fort and he was never seen again.
