Notes 1 "Do dh’ AILEAN MAC-AONGHAIS, tàillear ann an Tìrithe: le DOMHNULL DOMHNULLACH."
Notes 2 "Bha ’n tàillear ag iasgach air carraig agus thuit e a mach anns a mhuir. Shìn fear de na bha ’sa chuideachd an tàbh ’ga ionnsaidh, agus air dha breith air thàirneadh gu tìr e. A réir a’ Bhàird ’s ann le bàta a theàrnadh an tàillear."
Notes 3 "Donald M‘Donald, Dòmhnull Mac Iain òig, was a native of Tyree. He lived in Croisigearr. He ranks well as a comic poet. He died a poor man in Barra, about the year 1835. There are eleven of his songs in John M‘Lean’s M.S."
