Arsa Eoghan leí
"A Pheig Ruadh na n-árann"
Cad é fáth do chaointe?
An í an láir nuadh a fuair bás ort?
Nó an fear grádhmhar bhíodh taobh leat?"
"Ní hí an láir ruadh a fuair bás orm

Do goid mo chabáiste.
Sin é fáth mo chaointe." - Long ago there was a man dying. His wife was very sorry for him. She said she would rather dies herself than the man. Some boys who knew she was sorry said they would frighten her. They plucked a goose and put it down through the roof of the house.(continues on next page)
