    "Cé chaoí a bhfuair t-athair bás?"
    "Báitheadh é, an fear bocht," arsan t-Éireannach.
    "Agus do shean-athair," arsan Sasannach.
    "Báitheadh é sin a chó maith," arsan t-Éireannach.
    "Wel," arsan Sasannach, "Dá mbeithinn-se id' áit sé ní rachainn isteach i mbád go deó."
    "B'fhéidir é," arsan t-Éireannach, "Ach cogar mé seo leat. Cé chaoí a bhfuair t'athair féin bás?"
    "In a leabai'" arsan Sasannach.
    "Agus céard mar geall ar do shean-athair?" arsan t-Éireannach.
