| Notes | The proliferation of autumn blackberries in Ireland reminds the speaker of the poem of a statement made by 'Beairtle' about the dearth of berries that grow in Rwanda, since so many people there don't have enough to eat. Beairtle thinks that this is because of the 'púca' who usually renders the berries inedible after Michaelmas in Ireland. |
