    "Má leigeann tú ar shiubhal mé," ars' an diabhal, "ní thiocfaidh mé fá do choinne go cionn fiche bliadhain eile."
    I gcionn fiche bliadhain tháinic an diabhal agus a raibh de diabhail beaga i n-ifrionn leis.
    "Imtheóchaidh tú indiu ar scor a' bith," ars' an diabhal, nuair a bhí sé fá ghiota de Liam. "Imtheóchaidh," arsa Liam, "ach gabhaigidh isteach."
    Caidé bhí san doras ach an bocsa agus nuair a bhí na diabhail ag gabhail 'un toighe siubhal siad uilig isteach sa bocsa agus ceapadh iad agus ní raibh siad ábalta a theacht amach as. Chuir Liam an clár ar an bhocsa agus ar' seisean, "béidh sibh annsin a choidhche."
    "Má leigeann tú ar shiubhal muid," ar' siad, "ní thiocfaidh muid 'a do chomhair a choidhche."
    Bhain Liam an clár den bocsa agus d'imthigh siad uilig. Ní raibh i bhfad n-a dhiaidh sin go bhfuair Liam bás agus siud suas é ag tarraingt ar na flaithis. Ba' é Naomh Peadar a bhí ar an gheafta agus d'iarr Liam air é leigint isteach.
