In Lerici once on a blue day I saw the child I’d been in a crinkled swimsuit with straps in the water at Salthill, against the promenade buildings which looked like an airport in wartime.

In the country, a group of young men in suits back from England on holiday in a sitting-room, a storyteller, gangly as a spare-bodied cow, who’d been coming for centuries.

A country lane at Christmas, a lone magpie’s nest, mummers coming along the lane.

The wren, the wren the king of all birds.

St Stephen’s Day was caught in the furze.

Up with the kettle and down with the pan.

Give us a copper to bury the wren.
