<lb n="56"/><span>I nOileán Cléire a bhíodh an tAthair Labhrás.  Deir Micheál Ó Cuileanáin </span>
<lb n="57"/><span>liom go raibh beirt fhile aca chun an amhráin seo, an tAthair Labhrás agus </span>
<lb n="58"/><span>Diarmaid Ó Mineacháin, agus gur cheapadar gach re gceathramhain eatortha.  Ní </span>
<lb n="59"/><span>dócha gur mar sin a bhí amh.  Sa leabhar n-a bhfuairemair-na an t-amhrán ní </span>
<lb n="60"/><span>raibh thíos leis acht ainm an Athar Labhrás amháin. </span></p>

<lb n="67"/><span>agus cuirfam i gcló san IRISLEABHAR iad.  Tá's againn go bhfuil a thuilleadh </span>
<lb n="68"/><span>aca ann, agus b'fhéidir go mbaileóghadh duine éigin iad.  Ar shon go rabhadar </span>
