    There was once a king who said that the messenger who told him of his mother's death should be executed. The messenger expressed it this way
    "An chéad soitheach a raibh tusa ann
    Tá sé ar lár".
    He wasn't executed.

    "Domhnall O'Conaill an dtuigeann tú Gaedilge?
    Tuigim a Chailín, cén rud is léir duit?
    Tá rud in do chupán a mharbhóthadh na céadta
    Más fíor duit a chailín bhéarfaidh mé spré duit."

    How Daniel O'Connell was warned by maid that there was poison in his cup.
