  2. Bhí fathach ag dul thart i gCo. na Gaillimhe uair amháin. Chuaidh se amach ag fiadach lá amhain agus mharbhuigh se torc. Annsin b'éigin dó an torc a tomjaiseadh ó na ceann go dtí a ruball le na ordóga agus thomhaisgach ordóg orlach. Bhí ribí gruaihe ar an torc agus bhí rimh orra. Shaith ceann ata isteach in a mhéar ag bhí sé tinm annsin agus bhí pian mhór ann. Thosuigh sé ag siubhal annsin go dtáinig sé go Cnoc na Gorm i nGoirtín agus luigh sé síos annsin. Bhí sé an lag agus fuair sé bás agus cuiread é san áit céadna.
