    An Leipreacán
    I gCill Chíarán Cill Mheadhon
    Lá amháin bhí m'aintín ag tóraidheact caorach i bpaircín Aoibinn Árd i gCill Cíaráin. Do cúala sí glór taobh istigh den claidhe agus léim sí isteach Núair a bhí sí istig céard a chonnaich sí acht an leipreacán Bhí casóigín dearg air agus bríste glún. Bhí caipín Ard caol air mar bheadh ar sídheóg. Ní raibh sé ag déanamh dada acht in'a suidhe cois chlaidhe. Do sheas sí ag féachaint air agus bhí seisean ag feacaint uirrí.
    Do thosuigh sé ag rádh "Imtheócaidh mé" "Imteócaidh mé".
    Do shín sé amach a mhéirín agus d'féach m'aintín. Núair a dféach sí ar arís ní raibh sé ann.
