    Long ago there lived a man named Mr John Moriarty. He used to travel from place to place teaching step-dancing to the young people. He had a dancing school in Lissydaniel. Every night the young people used to go to him to learn to learn step-dancing and they used to pay about eight shillings a quarter of a year. He used to dance for them upon a table so that they could see him very plainly. About three nights in the week he used to teach them.
