Ar n-oide múinte mac Dé Ar n-oide múinte mac Dé oide múinte as mhac don mhnaoi, ar dtoil do tháth re toil nDé —ní hé soin re chách—a chaoi. Dál an scrioptúir ó Dhia dhún cia nach iontnúidh res an eol deocha millse as gá n-ól deocha as mhillse blas i mbeol. An ghlóir thall ní tuilltir leo an rann dá mhuinntir as mhó neach ó mhartra dhíobh ag Dia lia dá shíol nach dalta dhó. Rothrom do-ghabhaid a ghrádh a charaid—ní comhthrom síon; a luagh oiliomhna hé uam mé do thuar roidhiomdha an ríogh. Ón ngábhadh do-chiam 'n-a chionn ar an gcrábhadh do bhiadh barr a scríbheann dá sgagtha leam, an ceann dalta as fhírfhearr ann. Do ghabh sé romuibh an raon; do sgoluibh Dé ní budh dual neamhadhradh do reacht an ríogh; tearc díobh nach deaghadhbhar duadh. Ní dá thoil carthair an cion; ní fhoil gan marthain 's ní mhar neach nar hoileadh a crú a chneadh; neamh an t-oirear as dú dhamh. Olc an fulang naomh do-niad; caol gin gur cumhang an ród cuid ríogh na talmhan don tréad re a méad díobh as adhbhar óg. Cá beag daoibh re hucht a fhiach an t-ucht do sgaoil ar bhar sgáth? Do dhearmaid ar n-oide a fhíoch nach síoth broide cheanglaid cách. Do bhí siad i n-easbhaidh iuil na heasbhail 's ní hiad a-mháin; cóir a n-altrom d'eagla an tnúidh do mhúin eagna daghclann dáibh. Do-bheir an té do oil inn ó sgoil Dé mar do-gheibh geall dá dteagmhadh cás anman ann barr grás don adhbhar as fhearr. Dá measda an mhéad dlighthear díobh do dhlighfeadh an tréad dá dtám bheith sgagtha ó ghníomh is ó ghlór; is mór dalta ríogh re rádh. Ní faide uann ainm a mhná, gairm ar n-oide as dual do Dhia; gidh lán an chruinne dá chlú is dú ar mbuime do rádh ria. Fionnar ó a chodladh 'n-a curp dá dtogradh d'iomadh ar n-olc go ndiongna rí an chruinne ceart ar eacht do bhí a bhuime bocht. Gidh iomdha cineadh do chlaoi a bhiodhbha ná sireadh sé —ní budh dóigh antabhaigh hí— cóir dá mbí ar daltadhaibh Dé. Crochadh m'oide tháinig tríom 's a loige a-táimid dá thúr; mo mhartra d'fhulang nach ál cumhang an grádh dalta dún. Ní bhiadh crábhadh ós a chionn, gidh cian do-chámar 'n-a cheann, slighe Dé d'imtheacht 'n-a ham; an t-indleacht mall is é as fhearr. Mo bheith gan toirse dá thúr 's an toil-se do bhreith go buan dom oide ní hanáir lán grádh gan loige d'fhagháil uam. Deacair cor i n-aghaidh Eoin; taghaidh mar do thogh an fáidh, éantogha ar ab anta dhaoibh, dalta an tsaoir céadchara cháigh. Tarla ar gach chineadh dá chloinn go ndligheadh gan labhra linn cairt aga bhás druim ar druim a tuinn na ngrás gur fhailc inn. Do reacadh an fhleadh ar luach dar bpeacadh do bhean a bhláth; deoch shearbh do b'fhoircheann dá fhíoch do dhealbh síoth coitcheann re cách. Mar fuair ar shíol Ádhaimh am —nochar shlánuigh dhíobh achd dream— is uime do-chí sa chrann 'n-ar chrom rí na cruinne a cheann. Nír chás pian achd pian gan chúis, ní 'n-a bhás do bhiadh a sbéis; pian ar n-oide i n-uair an bháis ní loige an pháis uainn dá héis. Fuair dímhiadh as m'óige uam; a mhíriar is móide as nár gan é 'n-a shochar dá shíol crochadh an ríogh is sé slán. Ní don anam ghlan a ghuth an chalann do char a-mach dá n-aomhadh Dia a theachta im theach; cia an neach dá budh reactha a rath. Gach ní do cheilis don chóir bí, munar leighis do liaigh, ar do chorp go gcuire phéin ort féin, a dhuine, 'n-a dhiaidh. Cóir ó theas gráidh a rádh ria an lámh dheas do dháil a crú: "Treabh m'fhearann le céacht an chló créacht as mhó le dtreabham thú." Is dulta dóibh uile ar t'iocht; An Chóir gé chuire 'n-a tocht is dual do bhreitheamh bheith ceart; teacht fad bhreith budh fheiteamh ort. Do phian, achd gin gur fheith iad, do mhian ar mbeith mar nach bíod do chuidigh ar gcor i méad cuidigh don tréad ar ndol díod. Docair gach cás don dá chéim, do bhás dar lotuibh gidh liaigh, cuisle dhonnfhola an deilg mhaoil tromfhola an taoibh dheirg 'n-a dhiaidh. Truagh iad ad chaomhthach ar chnoc, a naomhchrach, is siad ar sioc; míne agus gile a dá ghlac nír bhac dínn-ne a righe riot. Ag codal 'n-a dtoil gé a-tád, ar gach bpobal dá bhfoil fúd rachaidh gairm fhairsing ón éag; bréag as ainm don aisling úd. Muire a deala dhaoibh Eabha 's gach duine 'n-a deoigh; ionann cré dhuid-se agus dáibh, foigse ná cnáimh é don fheoil. Uair fa mbia cách ar crioth sa bhráth dia Luain 'n-a dhá leath an tslat thall dá dtuga a-mach uch! Ní hann as bhuga an bhreath. Is creidthe 's a bhás rem béal san chás gomadh beithte bríogh; re breitheamh cheart gidh cóir taobh gaol don chóir re reacht an ríogh. Tréigeamfeasda ar bhfeirg 's ar bhfíoch —dá cheird do budh cneasda fuath— an lorg do ghabhas do ghnáth; borb gach áth bhlaghas a bhruach. Is é as reacht don uile fhior duine ag teacht is duine ag dul; gé a-tá an gnás i gcéill dá char ní léir damh an bás im bun. a fala 's a loinn an bior ar nach rabha rinn is baoghal dún ar ar ndruim súgh an bhuinn ler saoradh sinn. An díle ar n-a dortadh dhún díne achd ochtar nachar bh'ál do bháidh muir gach duine dhíobh a shíol gur chuir uile i n-ár. Ar
