    Chuaidh bacach dall isterach i dtig feirmeóra i mBaile - Mhúirne timcheall dachad bliadhain ó shoin agus seo mar a iarr sé déirc ar an mnaoí:-
    "Eirigh id' suidhe a bhean a' tíghe,
    Is tabhair déirc de'n fhear adá dall,
    Déirc olna nó lín nó píosa de'n mhairc atá reamhar,
    Shilling an chíos mar a chídheann Mac Muire é san aghaidh."
    D'fhreagair an bhean mar sin:-
    "A bhacaig na leisge ní méinn liom a thuille de'd greann,
    Bhí do bhean anso indé is tú féinig indiu le na bonn."
    D'fhreagair an dall:-
    "Ní raibh mó bhean anso indé,
    Ná mé féinig indie le na bonn,
    Mar tá sí i gCill Cré le bliadhain,
    agus leac le na ceann,
    Is dá chómharcha san féin tá mo léintín dubh ar mo dhrom."
