    The document is a summary of the traditional Irish folksong "Cockles and Mussels" (also known as "Molly Malone"). It describes how in Dublin City, the singer first met sweet Molly Malone who was a fishmonger. Both her mother and father were fishmongers before her. Unfortunately, Molly died of a fever and could not be saved, so according to the song, her ghost now wheels a barrow through Dublin.
