| Notes 1 | "Thàirneadh am Bàrd leis a’ chrann do ’n fheachd-dùthcha. Thairg athair pàigheadh air a shon, ach cha ’n aontaicheadh e ris a sin. Ann an ùine ghoirid dh’ fhàs e sgìth de ’n t-saighdeireachd. Thug Tighearna Chola dha litir a dh’ ionnsuidh Còirneal an fheachda, ’s fhuair e a shaorsa le duine eile a chur ’n a àite." |
