“Tá capall i bpoll an t-Sionnaigh agus connacthas go minic é.”
Tá capall i bpoll an t-Sionnaigh agus connacthas go minic é. Bhí rian a chos le feiceál san sneachta nuair nach raibh sé féin le feicsint - cosa beaga ar nos searraigh. Tá an capall seo a' chosaint pota óir freisin agus ní bhíonn sé le feiceál ach go hanamh.
