Bha Clann Uisne 鈥� Naois, Deirdre, Aillean is 脌rdan 鈥� a鈥� dol a thilleadh a dh鈥橝lba. Cha robh R矛gh Uladh, Conachar, toilichte. Chaidh e gu draoidh. Dh鈥檌arr e air an draoidh stad a chur orra. Chuir an draoidh coille thiugh ro Chlann Uisne. Ach chaidh iad tron choille gu furasta.

鈥淔euchaidh mi d貌igh eile,鈥� thuirt an draoidh. Chuir e muir mh貌r air a鈥� mhachair ro Chlann Uisne. Ach cha do chuir sin stad orra.

鈥淔euchaidh mi d貌igh eile airson stad a chur orra,鈥� thuirt an draoidh. Agus re貌dh e a鈥� mhuir. Bha i cruaidh, cnapach. Bha na cnapan geur agus puinnseanta. Thuirt 脌rdan gun robh e a鈥� f脿s fann.

鈥淪uidh air mo ghualainn,鈥� arsa Naois. Shuidh 脌rdan air gualann Naois. Cha robh e ann fada, ge-t脿, nuair a chaochail e.

Thuirt Aillean gun robh esan a鈥� f脿s fann cuideachd. Dh鈥檌arr Naois air Aillean gr猫im a chumail air. Ach th脿inig laigse a鈥� bh脿is air Aillean. Chaochail e. Chunnaic Naois gun robh a bhr脿ithrean marbh. Leig e osna a鈥� bh脿is. Agus chaochail e.

鈥淭ha Clann Uisne marbh,鈥� thuirt an draoidh ris an R矛gh.

鈥淭iormaich a鈥� mhuir,鈥� thuirt an R矛gh, 鈥済us am faic mi Deirdre.鈥� Thiormaich an draoidh a鈥� mhuir. Bha tri霉ir mhac Uisne nan laighe marbh. Bha Deirdre os an cionn a鈥� caoineadh.

Thug an R矛gh seachad 貌rdugh sloc a chladhach faisg air loch. Bha cuirp nam br脿ithrean air an cur ann.

Bha Deirdre na suidhe aig an uaigh. Leum i a-steach agus laigh i ri taobh Naois. Bha ise a-nise marbh cuideachd.

Dh鈥櫭瞨daich an R矛gh corp Deirdre a thogail 脿s an uaigh. Dh鈥櫭瞨daich e a tiodhlacadh ann an sloc eile. Bha an sloc eile air taobh thall an locha.

Tro th矛de ph貌s an R矛gh deagh bhean. Sh矛os aig an loch, dh鈥檉h脿s craobh ghiuthais 脿s an uaigh aig Deirdre. Dh鈥檉h脿s craobh ghiuthais 脿s an uaigh aig Naois. Chuir geugan an d脿 chraoibh snaidhm na ch猫ile os cionn an locha.

Dh鈥櫭瞨daich an R矛gh an d脿 chraoibh a ghearradh s矛os. Ach dh鈥檉h脿s iad a-rithist. Chuir iad snaidhm na ch猫ile os cionn an locha. A-rithist dh鈥櫭瞨daich an R矛gh an d脿 chraoibh a ghearradh s矛os. Ach a-rithist, dh鈥檉h脿s iad. Chuir iad snaidhm na ch猫ile os cionn an locha. Bha an R矛gh a鈥� dol a dh鈥櫭瞨dachadh treas turas na craobhan a leagail. Ach chuir a bhean stad air. Cha do rinn e geur-leanmhainn air na mairbh tuilleadh.
