    Sgéal
    Bhí bean in a comhnuidhe in aice na h-áite seo agus bhí cat aici.
    Cat mór, dána, millteach do beadh é & sin é an barramhla na ndaoine go raibh uamhan ar an mnaoi roimhe.
    Nuair a reidthigheadh an bhean úd a béilí cuireadh sí an pairt is mó & is fearr roimh an cat.
    Nuair a bhíodh an prionn thart shuideadh an cat ar stól in aice na teineadh gan corr as.
    Aon oidhche amháin bhuail bean comharsan isteach; shuidh sí chuig an teine.
