    Seanbhean o'n mBlascaod Mór a bhí ag díol coinín le bean uasal éigin gan aon Gaedhluin aici. Bhí an bhean uasal anáirde sa bhfuinneóig.
    Bean an Oileáin - "A bhean anáirde will you buy a coinín?"
    An Bhean uasal - "Is it a hare?"
    B. an O. - "Droich chrích ort led shaoghal, níl ná caoch. Is maith(?) an dá súil atá aige féin"
    An B. U. - "Is it fat?"
    B. an O. - "Mhuise léan ort is meath. Ní headh ná cat ach coinín mór maith ó'n Oileán Thiar amach?"
    An B. U. - "Will you take eight pence?"
    B. an O. - "Ar mh'anamh-sa a laogh gil ná thabharfainn gan réal é"
