- Bhí fear ann fadó agus bhíodh sé i gcónaí ag rádh ná bíodh aon eagla air roimh aon rud. Bhí sé ag teacht abhaile ón tig ósta aon oíche amháin agus chonaic sé rud bán ar an mbóthar.
Shíl sé céad uair gur caoire a bhí ann ach nuair a tháinigh sé gairid dó chonaic sé gur buidéal a bhí ann agus sprid istigh ann.
Labhair an sprid agus dúirt sé "Is mise sprid an buidéal agus tháinigh mé anseo chun tusa do marbhú". Le sin tháinigh sé amach as an mbuidéal agus do mhairbh sé an fear.
