    "Má d'imir na balláin orm-sa, d'imir mise ar an Mhaighdean Mhara", arsa Peadar leis fhéin
    Fuair sé an t-slat iascaireacht arais, chuir baidhte ar an dubhán agus chaith amach san fairrge é ach ní raibh maith ann, ní raibh aon iasc le fághail
    Nuair a mhuscail an Mhaighdean Mhara chriothnuigh sí an ráca. Chonnaic sí Peadar ag iascaireacht agus bhí barramhail aici gurb' é a ghoid é. Níor mhothuigh Peadar ariamh go dtáinic sí taobh thiar de. D'fhiafruigh sí de an raibh sé ag marbhadh aon iasc. D'amharc sé go fiadhain uirri, gan aon fhreagra a thabhairt, agus a dhá shúil ag gabhail amach ar a chloiginn. "Nach mairg nach dtug de'n bhóthar é, nuair a bhí caoi agam air", ar' seisean leis fhéin.
