    Nuair a bhí Colmcille ina ghasúr bhí sé ina chomhnuidh ag uncal da chuid. Bhíodh Colmcille ag léigheadh leabharthaí go minic nuair a b'fheárr leis an uncal é a bheith ag cuideadh leis féin ag obair ins na cuibhrinn.
    Lá amháin bhí an t-uncal ag cur choirce. Nuair a thainic sé isteach chuig na dhínnear diarr sé ar Cholmcille dhul amach agus na préachain a choinneil ar shiúbhal ón choirce. a bhí craithte go bhfuigheadh sé a fhóirseadh. Chuaigh Colmcille amach mar h-iarradh air, ach ní rabh sé i bhfad amuigh go dtainic sé isteach arais.
    “Cé atá ag coimhead na bpréachan?” ars an t-uncal.
    “Tá na préachain druidte istigh sa sgiobal,” arsa Colmcille.
    Thug an t-uncal rúide amach agus fearg air, mar mheas sé gur ag magadh air a bhí Colmcille. D’fhosgail sé doras an sgobail, agus leis an síothadh a bhí leis na préachain ag teacht amach thóg siad é leo síos leath an chuibhrinn.
    Thainic sé arais ansin agus dubhairt sé le Colmcille iad a chur isteach ar ais.
    “Cuir féin isteach iad anois,” arsa Colmcille. “Nuair a bhí siad istigh agamsa, lig tusa amach iad.”
    Deir na sean daoine gurbh é sin an chead mhiorbhailte a rinn Colmcille.
