Rabhd Eudochais	Cry of Despair
Dé ni ceòl no cainnt sgeilmear no craobh a' fàs craobhach dealbhach no blàth caomh a' chinnidh daonna no beui gràidh le còmhradh beatha no gilead na gréine no leugan na mara no caoineadh no sgarrghail rabhaidh fiosrachadh foghair no samhraidh no earraich no geamhraidh dhan an fheadhainn a roghnaich boidhr' agus doille - 's a tha 'n aghaidh ris a' bhailbhe? An t-Oll. Dòmhnall MacArnhlaigh (1930-)	What's the use of music or polished diction or tree that grows branching and shapely or the gentle blossom of humanity or loving mouth with talk of life or the sun's brightness or the sea's jewels or keening or warning cry knowledge of autumn or summer or spring or winter to those who have chosen deafness and blindness - and are facing dumbness? Prof. Donald MacAulay (Bernera, Lewis)
