The Grand Question Debated
Whether Hamilton's Bawn Should be Turned into a Barrack or a Malt-house − 1729
This Hamilton's bawn, while it sticks in my hand, / I lose by the house what I get by the land; / But how to dispose of it to the best bidder, / For a barrack or malthouse, we now must consider.

The cattle, therefore, would be brought into the bawn at night, as is stated by the early 17th-century writer Fynes Moryson who wrote that the Irish cattle “eat only by day, and then are brought at evening within the bawns of castles, where they stand or lie all night in a dirty yard without so much as a lock of hay.”

examples: Let us describe in general the subfield generated by a given element. Let K be a given field, F a subfield of K, and c an element of K. Consider those elements of K which are given by polynomial expressions of the form
(1)#92;qquadf(c)#61;a#95;0#43;a#95;1c#43;a#95;2c²#43;...#43;a#95;ncⁿ#92;qquad#92;qquad#92;mbox#123;(each#125;a#95;i#92;mbox#123;in#125;F#92;mbox#123;).#125;
[...]
 If f(c) and g(c) ≠ 0 are polynomial expressions like (1), their quotient f(c)/g(c) is an element of K, called a rational expression in c with coefficients in F. The set of all such quotients is a subfield; it is the field generated by F and c and is conventionally denoted by F(c), with round brackets.
We are now in a position to describe the subfield of K generated by F and our algebraic element u. This subfield F(u) clearly contains the subdomain F[u] of all elements expressible as polynomials f(u) with coefficients in F (cf. (1)). Actually, this domain F[u] is a subfield of K. Indeed, let us find an inverse for any element f(u) ≠ 0 in F[u]. [...] This shows that F[u] is a subfield of K.
 Since, conversely, every subfield of K which contains F and u evidently contains every polynomial f(u) in F[u], we see that F[u] is the subfield of K generated by F and u.
