You didn't know about them two?
You niver h'ard of Chief Diarmid and Queen Moira and their two lovely children?
Well, there it is, there's no sayin' how ignorant y'are if y'are not Irish.

Aw no, they wasn't man and wife.

Diarmid was a widower and Moira was a widow.
Diarmid's boy was Filion and Moira's girl was Fiona, an' the troubles of the two'd make a book for ivry day of the week, an' two for Sunday.

An' the way that St.Droid brought them two together Aw, come outside in the gardin where the moon's to the full, an' it's warm enough for anny man or woman that's got a warm heart, an' I'll tell you the story of Filion and Fiona.

You'll not be forgettin' the names of them now, will ye?
And while I'm tellin' you, all the time you'll be thinkin' of St.Droid, for it's his day.
