Celtic Fairy Tales, Connla and the Fairy Maiden, part 3, sentence 58

So they married one another, and that was the fine wedding they had, and if I were to be there then, I would not be here now; but I heard it from a birdeen that there was neither cark nor care, sickness nor sorrow, mishap nor misfortune on them till the hour of their death, and may the same be with me, and with us all!

Who acts: hunger, that, I · What happens: marry, be, have, not be, hear, cark · To what, where: one, fine wedding, wedding, birdeen, sickness
