Muiris mac Torna Ó Maolchonaire cct. Orphe-us óg ainm Eoghain: lámh nách tais i ttéidcheolaibh, mér sgathbhraistiugh bláth binn - tráth dá athbhaisteadh d'Éirinn. Orphe-us d'athbhaisdeadh air ní hiongnadh dó 'na dheaghaidh: bas tioghbhogbhán nách meirbh meoir ag seinm mbionnorgán mbláithcheoil. Do b'ionann dóibh ceol coirche gearradh ponnc 's port caondoilfe; foghar a meor mar-aon ann; a cceol ar-aon do b'ionann. Eighir Orphe-us i cceol mar sin Eoghan gan aithcheodh; fear mar é, ceoluighe ceart, ní deoraidhe é san oighreacht.
Dóibh ar-son gérbh ionann guth ceol sídhe na n-éan n-iulach, searbh ceol na sídhealtan soin tré cheol fhírreachtmhar Eoghain. Deacair ceol mar é d'fhagháil, ceol Eoghain Uí Allmhuráin, 's gur chinn ar gach ceol coirche gidh binn ceol na cceolaighthe. Ceol na n-orgán maoithe mbinn lé ceol Eoghain ní hinghill; bíodh gur ceol a cceol gan cheas a cceol re a cheol ní coimeas.
