She boght ta’n verchys nagh vel, feoïltagh dooie, All worth is poor, unless with generous skill
Son rheïn lesh sollagh’-laue yn tôrtys yeeasit; The liberal hand the trusted gift impart;
Annoon tan phooar nagh vod yn aigney loobey, All power is weak that doth not curb the will,
Dagh schleï fardail nagh vel minjeal y cree. All science vain that does not mend the heart.
