Nach math na sgeulachdan a tha ag innse mar a bhios amadan a鈥� d猫anamh a鈥� ch霉is air daoine eile. Seo agaibh t猫 air mar a rinn amadan Iain Bhric a鈥� ch霉is air m猫irleach ann an Coille Tharbhaidh.

Tha coille mh貌r fhathast ann an Tarbhaidh, a tha suidhichte ann am meadhan Siorrachd Rois, eadar Ulapul agus Inbhir Pheofharain. Anns an t-seachdamh linn deug bha a鈥� choille m貌r is dorch is cunnartach. Agus bhiodh m貌ran robairean ri sp霉inneadh innte. Nuair a bha Iain Breac na cheann-cinnidh do Chloinn 鈥檌c Le貌id Dh霉n Bheagain, chaill e m貌ran airgid innte.

Seo mar a thachair e. Chuir Iain Breac a sheumarlan a dh鈥橧nbhir Nis, ann an cuideachd dithis eile, airson airgead fhaighinn a ph脿igheadh airson obair-c脿raidh air a鈥� chaisteal aige ann an D霉n Bheagan 鈥� an dearbh chaisteal a tha feumach air c脿radh an l脿 an-diugh.

Fhuair an tri霉ir a dh鈥橧nbhir Nis gu s脿bhailte agus fhuair iad an t-airgead. Chuir iad ann am poca e. Air an rathad dhachaigh, th脿inig m猫irlich orra ann an Coille Tharbhaidh. Thug na robairean gunnaichean a-mach is dh鈥櫭瞨daich iad don tri霉ir an cuid airgid gu l猫ir a thoirt seachad. Thug iad am poca seachad. B鈥� fheudar don t-seumarlan agus a chompanaich cumail a dol don Eilean Sgitheanach airson innse do dh鈥橧ain Breac gun do chaill iad an t-airgead gu l猫ir.

Bha Iain feumach air an airgead, ge-t脿, agus chuir e teachdaire eile, le companaich thapaidh, a dh鈥橧nbhir Nis airson tuilleadh fhaighinn. Ach, air an rathad dhachaigh, ann an Coille Tharbhaidh, thachair an dearbh rud a thachair don fheadhainn eile. Is r脿inig iad D霉n Bheagan gun sgillinn ruadh air fh脿gail aca.

Th脿inig an leann-dubh air Iain Breac. Cha b鈥� urrainn eadhon a ph矛obaire, a chl脿rsair no a bh脿rd inntinn a thogail. Mhothaich an t-amadan gu robh a mhaighstir gu math 矛osal is chaidh e a bhruidhinn ris. Dh鈥檉haighnich e dheth gu d猫 a bha a鈥� cur air. Mh矛nich Iain Breac na thachair agus thuirt an t-amadan ris, 鈥淣a gabhaibh dragh. S霉im sam bith a tha sibh ag iarraidh faighinn, gheibh mise i. Bheir mi dhachaigh gu s脿bhailte i.鈥�

Cha robh Iain Breac a鈥� cur cus earbsa ann am beachd an amadain. Ach lean an t-amadan air, ag r脿dh gun d猫anadh esan a鈥� ch霉is far an do dh鈥檉hailnich air feadhainn eile. Agus, mu dheireadh, dh鈥檃ontaich an ceann-cinnidh an cothrom a thoirt dha. Bha Iain Breac airson an t-each as fhe脿rr aige a thoirt don amadan, ach cha robh an t-amadan air a shon idir. Thagh esan seann l脿ir nach robh gu m貌ran feum tuilleadh. Agus dh鈥檉halbh e.

Nuair a r脿inig e Coille Tharbhaidh, thachair e ri m猫irleach a dh鈥檉haighnich dheth c脿鈥� robh e a鈥� dol. 鈥淭ha mi a鈥� dol a dh鈥橧nbhir Nis airson airgead fhaighinn do mo mhaighstir鈥�, thuirt an t-amadan.

鈥淎gus am bi companaich agad nuair a thilleas tu?鈥� dh鈥檉haighnich am fear eile.

鈥淥 cha bhi,鈥� fhreagair an t-amadan.

鈥淯ill, cumaidh mise s脿bhailte thu,鈥� thuirt am m猫irleach, 鈥渙ir bidh daoine olc a鈥� tadhal air a鈥� choille seo.鈥� Dh鈥檉haighnich e dhen amadan cuin鈥� a bhiodh e a鈥� tilleadh, agus thuirt e gun coinnicheadh e ris anns a鈥� choille air an l脿 sin.

Chum an t-amadan a鈥� dol a dh鈥橧nbhir Nis agus fhuair e an t-airgead. Chuir e an t-airgead ann am poca. Ach fhuair e poca eile, dhen aon se貌rsa, agus l矛on e sin le sligean maoraich. Bha, mar sin, d脿 phoca aige, ach chum e am falach iad, fo chle貌ca. Chaidh e air muin na seann l脿ire agus rinn e air an taobh an iar. Agus innsidh mi dhuibh mar a rinn e a鈥� ch霉is air a鈥� mh猫irleach anns an ath Litir.

Abairtean na seachdaine: nach math na sgeulachdan: aren鈥檛 the stories good; anns an t-seachdamh linn deug: in the 17th Century; bhiodh m貌ran robairean ri sp霉inneadh innte: many robbers were engaged in plundering in it [in the wood]; na cheann-cinnidh do Chloinn 鈥檌c Le貌id Dh霉n Bheagain: a clan chief of the Macleods of Dunvegan; ann an cuideachd dithis eile: in the company of two others; a ph脿igheadh airson obair-c脿raidh air a鈥� chaisteal aige: which would pay for repairs on his castle; an dearbh chaisteal: the same castle; th脿inig m猫irlich orra: thieves came upon them; an cuid airgid gu l猫ir a thoirt seachad: to give over their entire money; gun do chaill iad an t-airgead: that they lost the money; gun sgillinn ruadh air fh脿gail aca: without a single penny left [to them]; cha b鈥� urrainn eadhon a ph矛obaire inntinn a thogail: even his piper couldn鈥檛 improve his mental state; mhothaich an t-amadan gu robh a mhaighstir gu math 矛osal: the fool noticed his master was very low in spirits; bheir mi dhachaigh gu s脿bhailte i: I will bring it safely home; cha robh X a鈥� cur cus earbsa ann am Y: X didn鈥檛 have too much confidence in Y; thagh esan seann l脿ir nach robh gu m貌ran feum tuilleadh: he chose an old mare that was no longer of much use; am bi companaich agad nuair a thilleas tu?: will you have companions when you return?; l矛on e sin le sligean maoraich: he filled that with sea shells; air muin na seann l脿ire: on the back of the old mare; chum e am falach iad, fo chle貌ca: he kept them hidden under his cloak.

Puing-ch脿nain na seachdaine: mar a bhios amadan a鈥� d猫anamh a鈥� ch霉is air daoine eile: how a fool outwits other people. Those of you who think deeply about grammar might have thought 鈥� 鈥渨hy is it not a鈥� d猫anamh na c霉ise鈥� because c霉is is a feminine singular noun which goes in the genitive case following a verbal noun. So you might expect us to say rinn mi a鈥� ch霉is ort but bha mi a鈥� d猫anamh na c霉ise ort. This might have been the case historically but with the gradual weakening of the genitivisation of nouns following a verbal noun, it is no longer the case with this idiom, although we would still use the possessive genitive eg deireadh na c霉ise.

Gn脿ths-cainnt na seachdaine: dh鈥檉haighnich e dheth gu d猫 a bha a鈥� cur air: he asked him what was wrong with him. D猫 tha a鈥� cur ort?: what is wrong/up with you?
