    Fear Beo: "A ghiolla ábaigh faoi'n t-siabadh imbeál an toir; ceist agam ort, in ainm Íosa; an fear saoghalta thú no geilt?
    An t-Anam: "Chan duine saoghalta mé nó geilt, acht anam bocht atá i bpéin"
    Fear Beo: "Ceist agam ort in ainm osa, acht gan mé dochas a dheanamh duit; cé fhad ó d'fhág tú ann saoghal seo nó annsin atá tú ó shoin?
    An t-Anam: "Fiche bliadhain go Domhnach is chuaidh thart, a sgar mé leis an cholainn chlaoin; tá mé mar tchídh tú mé ó shoin, m'aghaidh ar ghaoith is an fhearthainn. Nuair abhí mé ar shaoghal na mbréag, bhí mé go h-aoibhinn aerach ann, marcuigheacht ar m'óigbheathach a' léimnigh, féile is féasta ar gach taobh damh. Nuair a rachfainn un' Aifrinn Dia Domhnaigh ní trócaire a d'iarrfainn do m'anam, ag magadh ar aoinneach a bhfeicfinn agus Corp Chríosta ós mo choinne.
