Cò a leughas na dàin nach do sgrìobh mi? Nuair bhàsaicheas mi spìon mo chridhe ds mà chorp, 's le cutaig mhln dèan bearradh beag, is chì thu leabhar sa bheil sgelobhte na dàin nach do sgfiobh mi; fuasgail e gu cùramach le slùilean caomha, blàth', tog às na briathran aon mu seach is gheibh thu dealbh air Eden mar a bha e mus do nochd an nathair ann.	Who will read the poems that I have not written? When I die pluck my heart out of my body, and with a delicate gutting-knife make a little incision, and you will see a book in which are written the poems which I did not write; free it carefully with gentle, warm eyes, lift out the words one at a time and you'll have a picture of Eden as it was before the serpent appeared in it.
Dòmhnall Iain MacÌomhair	Donald John Magiver
