Dúirt Maidhc leis an deatach a análú isteach ina scamhóga ach d’éirígh Maidhc fíor-bhreoite agus chaith sé uair sa pháirc ag caitheamh amach an méid a bhí ina bholg aige!/ ag aiseach | Maidhc told him to breathe the smoke into his lungs but Maidhc got really sick and spent an hour in the field throwing out what was in his stomach! |
