A Cristoforus naemh, ar iatsan, guidh forainne guru logha Dia ar peacaidh duinn. Creididh an Dia [2] bithbeo amhain, ar se, ⁊ doghen sa guidhe tar bar ceann. O robhadar ar in imradhughadh sin tainic coimhedaigh inna caithreach cucu, ⁊ asbert : Ticidh amach, or se, atathar ga bar n-iarraidh. O tangadar iarumh cusin ri, adubhairt sidhe friu : In roshaebhsabhair in fear ut, ar se, guro aentaigheadh fribh? Rochreidsiumne in a Dhia siumh, for in Aicilina, oir ni fuil slainte a neach eile acht ann. Roshaebhsabhair e, bar in ri, ⁊ roimpobhair ar ar n-deibh ne ? Is e in t-aon Dia namha fil i nimh, for Aicilina, creidmuid. Bar n-dee si imorro, ar Aicilina, ad clocha sidhe ⁊ ni chumchat [3] nach maith eile do dheanamh acht in lucht adrait iad do chur immalairt. Rofeargaigheadh an ri fri sidhe, ⁊ adubhairt a togbhail ⁊ a folt do cheangul ⁊ da chloich do cheangul dia lamhaibh fo dhaigh a mbrisdidh. Dorinneadh amlaidh, ⁊ rofegh Aicilina ar Cristoforus ainnsidhe, ⁊ adubhairt : A Christoforus naemh, or si, dena ernaigthe tar mo cheann. Dorinne Cristoforus ernaigthe for a ceann, ⁊ rofaidh a spirut fai sin. Asbert an ri a corp do choimed gan adhlucadh. Tucadh dono an bhean eile dinnsaighe an righ. i. Caillica a h-ainm sidhe. Asbert an ri : Dena idhbuirt dona deibh, ar se, ⁊ dobhersa onoir mor duit, ⁊ doghentar [4] dealbh orrdha duit acum. Abair amhain, ar Caillica, cait in dingen [5] in idhbuirt. Berar i, ar in ri, co teampoll na dee gu n-dearna idhbuirt ann. Doberar callaire roimpi do fhuagra .i. Caillica ag idhbuirt dona deibh. Ba maith risin aes uile sin. Andar leo dogheanadh go fir an idhbuirt. Doluidh si iarumh isin teampoll. O rodech si ar sagart an teampuill ⁊ ar cach archeana, adubhairt sidhe : Feghaidh si guna don dia mor idhbraim sa. Luidh isin teampoll an innsaighe an aite a m-badar na dee, ⁊ tarrusdair a fiadhnuise Ioib. A Ioib, ar si, abair friud chumhail cidh doghena. Ni thug in dia freagra dhi. Fearg ata oc na deibh frimsa, or si, uair ni thabhraid freagra damh, no dono is na colladh atait. Asbert dorisi : Ma ta cumhachta agaibh, or si, freagraidh, ⁊ muna bfuil imorro cidh dia curthai na daine a malairt. A Dhe na corp ⁊ na n-anmann, ar si, tar domh fhurtacht. Roghlac cuici dealbh Ioib cu lar, ⁊ roleagh amhal ceir, ⁊ robhris na dei eile on iniudh ceadna. A Dhee, ar si, ma ta cumang agaibh cidh atathi can bar saeradh fein. Rogabhadh i ainnsidhe, ⁊ rugadh do thig in righ i. Muna gabhmuis ni i, ar na milidh, ni faicfeadh aon dealbh can lot. Roghealluis damhsa, ar an ri, a dhroch bhean, gun digheanta idhbuirt dona deibh, ⁊ ni headh dorinnis acht a lot. At Issad F. olca na dee, ar si, dia cumhcann bean ni doib. Is e an firdhia imorro inti nach feadar do chlodh o neach, ⁊ is e sidhe mo dhia sa, ⁊ as ann creidim. Asbert in ri da chlo iarainn do shathughadh an a bonnaibh guroisdis a braighidh fud a cuirp, ⁊ cloch do thabhairt fo muinel dia briseadh. Rofegh si ar Cristoforus ainnsin, ⁊ asbert: A Christoforus naemh, or si, guidh tar mo cheann. Dorinne Cristoforus ernaigthe fuirri ann sidhe, ⁊ rofaidh a spirut. Asbert in ri a corp do choimed can adhlucuis co rocht corp Cristoforus cuigi. Asbert an ri: Is olc an t-ainm, ar se, .i.
