[1] Loch LA(C)in, former name of one of the Lakes of Killarney.
On a time there lived a king and a queen in Erin, and they had an only
son. They were very careful and fond of this son; whatever he asked for
was granted, and what he wanted he had.
When grown to be almost a young man the son went away one day to the
hills to hunt. He could find no game,--saw nothing all day. Towards
evening he sat down on a hillside to rest, but soon stood up again and
started to go home empty-handed. Then he heard a whistle behind him, and
turning, saw a giant hurrying down the hill.
