From the folk song ‘Molly Malone’:
In Dublin’s fair city
Where the maids are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
She wheels her wheel-barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying ‘cockles and mussels alive alive-o’
I am told that the statue that was put up in Dublin in honour of Molly was such an artistic failure, that it is now fondly known by the Dubliners as “The Tart with the Cart”.
