EOCHAIDH Ó hEOGHUSA cct.

 A-tám i gcás eidir dhá chomhairle; gá cás as rodhailghe ná an dál a- direim-ne? guais teacht ó chríochbhun an dá chomhairle dá neart chomhaidhbhle dar síorchur dar slighidh-ne. Dá chúis rom-ghoin le diamhair ar ndoimheanma toil na hoileamhna ag iarraidh ar n-aradhna ó fhairche ráthaigh ghartghloin gheilEamhna 'gar máthair gheineamhna is m'antoil anamhna. Measaim triall le mearbhail ar mórchumhadh ó fhiadh na n-órchuladh, ó sheanmhaigh shíothMhumhan, go hadhbhaidh mbuig sruithbhinn na saorchuradh is cuid dar saothrughadh ar nach cuirfinn críochnughadh. Measaim dá éis i n-aimsir ar dtriallai-ne go géis ngrianDaire ros faillsigh gach fáidhfhile is mé go haoinchéim ar ndul sa dréimire nar chéillidhe sgur re baoithréim ar mbáirei-ne. Anfad re cuma ar nduaine deiridh-ne sunna i neimhinmhe—gá cruaidhe comhairle? mása thruagh leo—gidh eadh dá n-anaim- ne ní raghaim-ne beo go sluagh mear Modhairne. Ó chrích chaillghil na gcaladh síodhamhail dá n-anar san ríoMhumhain mhaighrigh mhíondoirigh gá dulc dhún ar sealadh go sírrighin? dleaghar do ríghfhilidh súr gach síodhoirir; an dara bliadhain gan triall fa thuaidheamhain ní bhiam ó shluaighfheadhain riaraigh ríoghOiligh. Gér linn ón droing do ghnáth a nguailnidheacht do luaighidheacht tar cách is roinn a ríoghadhart, is luibh chabhra dhúin ar ar ndeoraidheacht ó cheoloireacht Ghabhra ar súil re a síorradharc. Dursan ar dtriall ó oirear fhionnDaoile na moigheadh ndionnnaoidhe go fiadh bhfionnÁine; gidh ionmhuin clár sreathghlan seanDáire, neamhthal ar leannáin-ne fa dál diombaidhe. Uchán ar gcéim-ne ón talmhain thuaidheamhain, 's ó Éirne chuainealaigh bhalbhghlain bhraondoirigh, is ó fhréimh armruaidh rúnbhrais ríoghUidhir, 's ó shíodhuidhibh glanshluaigh shúlghlais shaorOiligh 'sh óm Aodh féine mo ghrádh tar Ghaoidhealaibh, as céile d'aoigheadhaibh 's as fhál d'aoghairibh. Is í ar ndáigh nach ba cian ar gcéilidhe, ar gcéilei-ne riamh a-mháin dá mhóirfhine, ó Mág Uidhir dá roiseam 'n-a ríobhaile, síodhaidhe boisseang ó bhruighin ar mBóinneine. Do-ghéabh i síothlios fhionn an Aodha-sa mo dhínchrios taobha-sa, mo lionn lúdha- sa, is gan ar dtriall a hamharc an aoilleasa radharc gach aoibhneasa san fhiadh Úna-sa. Budh mór saorchlann dom fhios do b'inríoghtha is fraochlann rinnlíomhtha ar slios na sean-bhóchna; budh iomdha béinne úr airmniamhtha is glainbhriathra cléire san dún dealbhórtha. Budh iomdha le moltaibh fáidh fan bhfionnorlár, 's gáir bionnorghán le hochtaibh imeilmhéar, 's ceo doilbhthe ar gach leath fan loinnearmhúr ó chroibmearlúdh bhoirrthe each n- ingeinghéar. Budh iomdha ag triall don ealtain éigseighil éigsfhilidh dá riar ón ghreantaigh ghéagsdaraigh; badh iomdha rithlearg áith le hógsgolaibh go ráith bhfódsgoraigh na n-ilcheard n- éagsamhail. Badh iomdha sompla úr ar óireangaibh, is lúdh ag sróillearraibh corcra ós chaoilrean-naibh, gáir ag seilg, bionngháir ag buabhallaibh fan leirg mbuabhallaigh lionnbháin laoidheangaigh. Do-ghéabh róm gan fholta gan imreasain an slógh re finnleasaibh corcra an chuirmlissin; do badh díol teineadh don uallchath Eamhna-sain dealbhlasair buadhchlach bleidheadh na bruighneisin. Do-ghéabh Aodh romham 'n-a ríoghshuidhe, síodhuidhe saor nach bloghann a bhéalluighe, 's a ógbhadh thréan ar ar thinne caomhfhile 's ar bhfréamh chraobhei-ne ime go héanduine. Dá roicheam don bhrugh fhionnfhuar oireaghdha budh diombuan ar ndoimheanma ar ndul san deaghadhbha; do-ghéabh san phurt mo ghaol geineamhna is Aodh seinEamhna go n-a lucht leanamhna, lámh ler sgaoileadh teagar gach tighearna, dreagan nach infheadhma re haoinfhear n-ealadhna. Fuath na dreime ó raonchlár ríoBhóinne, baothghrádh fíoróighe seinge síodhshaoire, fa nochtaid fialmhná a meanma mímhéine, grianlá rífhéine meardha míonDaoile. Beithir Eamhna dar fuilngeadh fíorfhoghal, ríoghobhal Teamhra na mbuidhneadh mbéinneimhear, seabhac d'ealtain na gcuradh gcaolfhoghadh, saoraghadh deargthair gan omhan éinfhileadh. Mo chéile rúin, caomhthach gach chomhuidhigh, ón saothrach ar sgoluidhibh múir Muireadhaigh, fear síorchuir óir ar ar n-ealadhain tar deaghfhalaibh an tslóigh fhíochmhair fhuineadhaigh. Mo chean fionnbharr na bhfeadh ndruidfheactha dá dtiobhram cuideachta re feadh bhfaideachtra, 's an learg neamhchruinn fhionnghlan fhadochta mo chearchuill chodalta, ionnladh mh'aigeanta. A-tám.
