    An t-é nach mbíonn láidir ní foláir dó a bheith glic.
    Nuair a bhios an t-ól istigh bíonn an chiall amuigh.
    Is binn béal ina thost.
    Céard a dhéanfadh mach an chait [?] luch do mharbhughadh.
    Is mairg an teach a bhíos an cearc ag glaodach ann, agus an coileach ins thost.
    Is maith an capall a tharraingh eas [?] a chairt féin.
    Má caith an t-uisge bróc amach go mbéidh an t-uisge glan istigh agat.
    Tá an éagcaoin 'seadh feictear an cara is fearr.
    An rud is doilighe le duine d'féidir gurabh é a leas é.
    Nuair is fearr an greann is fearr leigeann dó.
