"Gabh thusa isteach ins an teach mór sin thall," arsa eisean. "Cuir do mhéar in do bhéal. Béidh a fhios aca annsin go bhfuil ocras ort." Ceurd a bhí ann acht teach dochtúra. "Tabhair isteach é," arsa an dochtúir, "fiacail theastuigheas uaidh thar- raingt. Cuir síos ar chathaoir é." Shíl mo dhuine bocht gur biadh bhí sé 'fhágháil. Thar- raing an dochtúir amach a chuid pionsúr. Tharraing sé fiacail. "Babhadh!" ars eisean. "Bhí a fhios agam," ars' an dochtúir, "nach í an fhiacail cheart a tharraing mé."

"Leig dom," ars 'eisean, "'á dtéidhfeá ag iarraidh bídh annsin, m'anam le diabhal," ars eisean, "'á bhfágfaidhe fiacail in do charbad." Connachtach
