I70 AM FEAR-CIUIL.
Tha na briathran so cho caomh ri morbhan braoin air
duiUe, 's cho tlath ri maoth-ghaoth chèit ; ach cha cheadaich
uine dhomh a thoirt duibh as an leabhar ach an sop as lugha
as an t-seid as goireasaiche, agus sin a mhain a shoiUeireach-
adh an ni air a bheil mi 'g iomradh. Tha cuid de na
laoidhean ann am briathran cho grinn 's as aithne dhomh idir,
ged tha e gle choltach nach robh iad uile air an tairgse 'n
tùs do na naoimh a tha nis air an ainmeachadh annta, ach do
chuspairean eile anns an robh an sluagh a' creidsinn aig an
àm. Gabhaibh an rann so mar eisimpleir.
"A rlgh na gile,
A rlgh na grèine,
A rlgh na rinne,
A righ na reula,
A rig-h na cruinne,
A righ na speura,
Is àluinn do ghnuis,
A lùb eibhinn.
Dà lùb shioda
Shios ri d' leasraidh
Mhinich, chraicich,
Usgannan buidhe,
Agus dolach
As gach sath dhiubh."
Cha 'n 'eil e soilleir co-dhiìi 's i ghrian no ghealach as
cuspair dha so. Tha fhios againn gu robh iad le chèile,
aig aon àm no àm eile, 'nan cuspairean aoraidh aig gach
cinneach air thalamh; 's tha e gle iongantach a bhi toirt
fainear ann an aoradh ar latha fein, deas-ghnathan agus modh-
labhairt a bha air an gnathachadh ann an aoradh-greine
