 Ionmholta malairt bhisigh: tárraidh sinde 'san amsa iomlaoid go suarrach sona, do-chuaidh a sochar dhamhsa. Do thréig sind sreatha caola foirceadal bhfaobhrach ffrithir ar shórt gnáthach grés robhog, is mó as a moltar sinde. Le dorchacht na ngrés snoighthe do bhínnse ag tuilliodh gráine: fa hí ughachta mhóráin nár dhíol róghráidh ar ndáinne. Maithim, giodh mór an sonas, énbhonn feasda dá thoradh, má théid énrand gan tuigse dom dhánsa ó dhuine ar domhan. Dán bog ar bhél na slighiodh, ós é anois siorthior oraind, cuirfeadsa dhíom na fiacha go ccead d'iarla Chlann gConaill. Mo gheallsa ar bhuga ar mhaoile ní bhérdaois daoithe an bheatha: do-chuaidh mé, maith an tuicsi, le cách fá uisge an cheatha. Do threig mé —gá mó sonas?— mo shlighthe docra diamhra: dá ccluine cuid dar ndáinne, beanfaidh gáire as an iarla. D'eagla mo chora as gárda ón mhéid dá ttárras loise, diúltaimse flaith ó gConaill do dhol oraind a ccoisde. Is iomdha tré dhán bhfallsa lán dom annsacht a mbliadhna: do thuillfinn tuilleadh ceana muna bheith eagla an iarla. Mac Aodha, aigneadh fosaidh, fear ler robhog ar ccruaidhne, ní cás dúinn dénamh tapaidh, ó tharla a Saxaibh uainne. Beag nach brisiodh mo chroidhe gach dán roimhe dá gcumainn: is mór an t-adhbhor sláinte an nós so táinig chugainn. Dá lochtaighe triath Bearnais énrand dá ndealbhthor linde budh iomdha ag cor 'na aghaidh— ionmholta malairt bhisigh. Ionmholta.
