THE FERNAIG MANUSCRIPT. '^i
Absuloni i vaighk I l)aijld.
Breh aijt voyh, beaghkoile
Ach aiphrik chaise fa zherrig
Nehrig ghasay vi faijle

Chrogh I ea rj ouire si cheijie
Nach faijck shywe sho kor i tivill
Maigk gaphel biwhile er ahir
(xa di zhaint chiiise lea si vig
Tuig nach soirrid ea la vrehe
Zhoon bihi no ir naihr
Feher er feher gheirrhi bi * phijl * vi 1
Ach mairg iiaigh nj aijrrish
Vo is moir j karrighe i sivill

Pairt di choijrle Yijck Eaghiii vyck earchir

Oirr da baijl koirle vouymb
Hophir laijt foymb gi nijna
Feagh nach di sig er di veihel
Gloir Ì zairnig ghuit fein kjnn
Absolom, a mhac a b' aillde,
Breith ait bhuaith, beachdail ?
Ach anihairc 'chuis fo dheiroadh,
Nearachd dha-san bhi foill ;
Ge bu mhòir leis àild' a ghruag,
Chroch i e ri uair sa' choilF.
Nach faic sibh 'n so cor an t-saogha
Mac 'gabhail baoghal air athair ;
Ge do dheant' chuis le saobhadh,
Tuig nach saoraidht' e la blireith
Dhuinn bidh na ar n-ath'r,
Fear air fear 'g iarraidh baoghal ;
Ach mairg neach ni aighear ris,
Bho is mor an caraiche 'n saoghal.
