  1. Long ago when the Fianna were hunting near a lake they saw a lady coming to them riding on a horse. She told then that She came to bring Oisin to Tir-na-nog. Oisin went riding on the horse behind the lady. When he was one hundred years in Tir-na-nog he came to Ireland and when he was riding through the country his saddle broke and he fell to the ground and he never went back again.
