- Bíonn go léor sean-sgealta ag na sean-daoine agus sean-fhocal ag dul le gach ceann acu. Seo ceann a chuala mé cuplá lá ó shoin. Bhí sionnach lá ag lorg bidh. Thainigh sé go dtí gairdín agus chonnaic sé coileach agus cuig nó sé chearca thuas i gcrann. Chuaidh sé suas go dtí an crann agus do glaoidh sé ortha. Dubairt sé go raibh sgeal maith aige doibh.
"Tá síothchain deanta idir na h-ainmidhthe go leir" ar seisean "agus tá athas an domhan orm"
"Tá athas orm-sa leis arsan coileach "acht ní rachaidh mé sios go maidhin"
"Act eist" arsan coileach "cim madra a teacht"
"O is mithid dom beith ag imteacht" arsan sionnach
"C'én fáth na mbeadh tú ag rith" arsan coileach
"dar ndóig ní eagla atá ort"
"O" arsan sionnach "tá eagla orm".
Níor cualaidh an madrai an sgeal fós agus do bhaiigh sé leis comh mear is bhí aige.(continues on next page)
