    Sgéal
    Do bhí fear ann fadó, darab ainm Seán Thaidhg. B’annamh dó bheith amuigh is d’oidhche. Oidhche amháin, chuaidh sé amach ag siúbhal, agus do bhí an gealach ag taitneamh. Chonnaic sé a sgáth féin taobh leis, agus cheap sé gur fear eile a bhí ann.
    Do bhí sé ag siúbhal leis, go dtí go raibh allus air. Do rith sé annsan go dtí go raibh sé lag traochta, acht ba bheag an cabhair dó é. Do thuit sé ar thaobh an bhóthair sa deireadh, agus chuaidh sé i laige. Ar maidin lár na bháireach, fuaireadh ar thaobh an bóthair é, marbh.
