    so they were on the watch. Donóg and Dómnaill were up in the tree now, and Donóz said "I want to talk." "Shut up." said Dómnaill. "But I must talk." said Donóg. "Well talk away", said Dómnaill. "They can't do but to kill us." "Here they are. Here they are." said Donóg. The robbers thought it was how the peelers found them and they took to their heels. Donóg and Dómnaill came down from the tree, took the gold and lived happily for the rest of their lives.
