- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)58 (contd)The wake
Large wakes were common. Boys usually came five and six miles to a wake. At one time girls assembled at wakes also. A notable at the wake acted as a priest and marriages were performed.The full ceremony & the words according to ritual were gone through. So great was the abuse that the church had to put it down with a firm hand, and it was a reserved sin in this diocese for any girl to be present at a wake house after the candles were lighted. Now - a - days wakes are smaller and are confined to the near relatives & a few neighbours.
The following are some of the games practised at wakes :
(a). Slapping - one boy puts his hand on his hip - leaning forward at the same time while another boy gives him two slaps as hard as he can draw with his hand. This boy then stoops & hips/ lifts? his hand while some other champion performs on him. This is continued until they are all fairly exhausted(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
