22 SPIORAD NA H-AOISE.
" 'Nis," arsa madadh na maoile-mòire, " slàn
leat a Chaomhain ! Soirbheachadh leat ge
b' e àit' an tèid thu — sonas 'nad shiubhal 's
'nad ghluasad. Thairg mi aoigheachd, 's cha
do dhiùlt thu i ; ghabh thu gu cridheil
sùnndach na thairg mi, chuir thu oidhche
seachad ann an uaimh madadh na maoile-
moire — dh' earb thu as — naisg thu a chàirdeas,
agus cha mheallar thu. A nis thoir fainear
mo bhriathra : Ma thig càs cruaidh no
èiginn gu bràth ort, as an dean luathas
coise agus gnìomhara èasgaidh feum dhuit,
cuimhnich air madadh na maoile-mòire, —
miannaich e, 's bidh mise ri d' thaobh."
Dh' amais an càirdeas agus an fhialachd
cheudna ris an ath oidhche o'n t-sàr-bhiat-
aiche iomairteach shiùbhlach, fitheach dubh
choire - nan - creag, air nach laigheadh an
codal, agus air nach èireadh a' ghrian, gus
am biodh aige na dh' fhòghnadh dha fèin
agus dhà-san a thigeadh 's a dh' fhalbhadh.
Gu gearr - leumach, clapartach, sgiathach,
rinn e 'n t-iùl da air chorraibh a sgèith
troimh aisridh chosa-ghabhar gu còs sgora
dhìonach craige, far an d' iarr e air dà thrian
