CIALL.
58. Ciall agus michiall
dis ná gabhann a chéile ;
is dóigh le fear gan éin-chéill
gurab é féin fear na céille.
59. NÍ truimide an loch an lacha,
ni truimide each a srian,
ni truimide caora a holann,
's ni truimide colann ciall,
60. Is gilide cloidheamh cailc,
is miride cruaidh fabhairt ;
urraim, agus tú i n-airc,
ni trumaide thú a tabhairt.
61. Tabhair dot eólas aire,
iarr an t-eólas roimhe ;
ni do ghnáth is tréan tuile,
féach, a dhuine, an t-áth oile.
62. Is mór milltear le luas beirte,
is fada is beite ar ti a déanta ;
féach go mall do chluiche timcheall,
sul dti h'intinn ar éin-bheirt.
63. Feith re fagháil an da sgéal,
madh ail leat do bhreith bheith buan ;
gibe breitlieamh nach bi claon
do-ni an da thaobh d'fheitheamh uadh.
