  1. Poll an Dobharchú

    Share Share Post
    Tráthnóna amháin bhí dhá chailín as Chrainn.cheo ag gabhail abhaile ó na Cealla. Bhí acú le dul thar an áit in a rabh an dobharchú in a chomhnuidhe. Shiubhail siad leo gan trup a dheánamh go rabh siad giota maith ar shiubhal ó’n poll.
    Shíl siad go rabh siad thar an chontabhairt agus thoisigh siad ag cainnt le fhéin. Go díreach nuair a bhí siad ag gábhail amach ag Crugoch choinaic siad an dobharchú ag teacht.
    Sgannruigh siad, agus toisigh siad ag sgréachaigh. D’othain athair cailín amháin acú an glór, agus tháinig se, ach ní sé ábalta dadaimh a dheánamh.
    D’iarr sé ar cailín amháin acú a brat a chaitheamh ar an chloich. Rinne sí seo, agus chuaidh an bheirt i bhfolach i gcúl na cloiche. Shíl an dabharchú gurab é an cailín a bhí ann. Bhuail sé an cloch leis an adharc a bhí air, agus thuit sé marbh.
    Ba sin deireadh an dobharchú sin.
