Der Tribut des Konigs von Ess Rúaid. (Aus B IV, fo. 60b). Atā sunn senchus nāch sūaill do rígh Eassa ro ghloin Rūaidh, gach ní dlighes, ní dúaithnid, is ⋅ires ó phrīomhthūathaib. Dā dabaigh décc do lionn maith, a thrí urdāil do deghbraith, cēt muc, cēt mart arna mhes, cēd brat, cēd matal mōirdhes. Trī cēd bairghen co ma trī, cīos Cairpri sin don airdrī gacha bliadhna, līth gan locht, 'sa adhlacadh coa ardport. Dartraighe ocus Tūath Rātha, Fir Luircc co n-ilur fátha, do rīgh Erne, rūathar nglē, bīadh ūathaib gacha rāithe. Cenēl Luighdhech, ní dlecht díbh acht comaitecht re hairdrígh, a tríath chuca ar cūairt ar sin gan bīadh d'iodhlacadh ūaithibh. As edh fodera dōib sin gan bīadh d'iodhlacadh ūaithibh, a līonmaire thūaid ga toigh is burba an t-slūaigh ō Thoraigh. Atád trī tūatha 'na tír, cíos nō cāin nī dlegar dhíbh, clann Murchada an lámaigh luinn, clann Dālaigh is clann Domhnaill. As uime nach dlegait soin cíos nó cáin do rīgh ūathaibh, dāibh as dúthaig an rīghe, nī chráidh cách a coimhdīne. Anūair nāch leis Temair tend ocus airdrīghe n-Ērenn, do rīgh Eassa Rūaidh nī dlecht cíos nā cāin nā comhuidecht. Ge deach rī Conaill a c-cēin ar slūaiged rí Temhra tréin, nī hēiccen beires ó thoigh acht do thuillemh tūarastoil. Dā t-tegmadh a c-cath cend i c-cend slūagh Conaill is rí Ērenn, cecha marbthar dīobh 'sa c-cath dlighid a íoc rī Temrach. Nī dlegait lōn leo for sét laochradh Conaill na c-cōemhcēd, acht an c-céin rabhaitt amuigh rī Érenn da b-friothāilimh. Ge mōr donīad for conair nī dlecht a accra oruibh, tūarustal rí cūiccid crúaidh dligid rī Essa rīoghrūaidh. Tūarustal trī n-uirrigh n-oll da gach uirrigh a Conall re taobh a thecht slān da thoigh gan dāl, gan agra orthoibh. Is tūarustal uirrigh dīobh gacha tōisigh tre bioth sīor, tūarustal tōisigh amuigh da gach ēnbrucchaid ūathaibh. Adhbair asa n-dleghait soin clanna Conaill Gulbain gloin, do chinn t-slōighidh nāch dlecht dīobh is ar crōdhacht a c-caithgnīomh. Pātraicc do&fdot;āccaibh dōibh soin, ūadh do sgrīobadh i l-leabraib, gach nī dleghait línibh lá Críst da choimēt mar atā. Atā.
