    Sgéalta Sidhe
    Uair amháin chonnaic fear, thart annseo, na miltí (seo) sidheóga ar an mbóthar, bhí siad ar muin capall. B’fhéidir leis na capaill léimint thar a cheann agus gan é a buaile. Bhíodar ar gach taobh dhe. Ní raibh sé ábalta focal do radh. Leann siad é go ndeachaidh sé isteach sa teach. D’fhan an fear sa teach ar feadh tamaill. Chuala sé a lán clocha ag tuitim. Chuaidh sé amach. Ní raibh aon rud lé feiscint aige. In a diaidh sin chonnaic sé an capall ag ait thart ar na stáblaí. Bhí ceann acu ag iarraidh breith ar an gceann eile. D’fhan an fear ag féachaint ortha. Tháinig siad i ngar dó. D’árduigh sé a lámh san spéir. Rith na capaill in a geos anáirde. Chuaidh an fear in a codhladh agus ní fhaca sé a thuille.
