    Bhí fear aon uair amháin agus bhí mac aige. Níor mhaith leis an fear go bhfeicfeadh an gasúr giorrsach ar bith ca bhfacaidh sé giorrsach ar bith go rabh sé fiche bliadhain d'aois. Bhí an t-sean fhear ag éirigh ro-shean le [dhí]? amach ‘un an aonaigh. Thug sé an gasúr leis an lá seo agus an chead rud a chasadh ortha na fear agus a ingean leis “caidé sin atá leis an fear sin arsan gasúr. Sin gabhar” arsan t-athair, Bhal nach deas é ceannuigh ceann damhsa a daidi.
