  1. Bhí búachaill ag obair le buistéar uair. Oidhche dhorcha núair a bhí sé ag dul abhaile ar rothar, thug an búistéar tóirse aibléise dó. Bhí sé san go maith go dtí gur shrois sé abhaile. Is amhlaidh ná feaca an t-amadán lampa mar sin ríamh agus ní raibh a fhios aige conus é do mhúchadh. Cad a dhein sé ach chuir sé é isteach i mbuicéad uisce chun é do mhúchadh. Núair a tháinig a dhritheár abhaile agus núair a chonnaich sé cad a bhí déanta aige "Hu, a ghamaill mhóir"! ar seisean "Ná fuil fhios agat conus é sin do mhúchadh" Do mhúc sé é dhó annsan.
