"Bhi ina lamh aige bata trom, agus e ag imirt leis; ach nior fhreagair se focal, agus ba dhoigh le duine air go raibh se ag eisteacht le mifhoighne ba dheacair a chosc. Agus ansin ar iompu na boise bhris ar an bhfoighne aige le rabharta feirge, bhuail se a leathchos in aghaidh an talaimh, bheartaigh se an bata, agus d'iompair se e fein ar nos duine buile. Chuaigh an seanduine uasal coisceim ar gcul, agus cosulacht air go raibh ionadh air agus e goillte beagan. Leis sin chuaigh Mr Hyde thar na bearta ar fad, agus leag se ar talamh le buille bata e. Agus noimead ina dhiaidh sin, le fiochmhaire apa, bhi se ag satailt ar an gcorpan faoina chosa, e ag radadh stoirme builli anuas air a bhris na cnamha le torann agus a thug ar an gcorp damhsa ar an mbothar." Sceal scafar uafar a chuirfidh alltacht agus anbha ar lucht a leite. Dearmad na leirithe eadroma de ata feicthe agat i scannain agus cruinnigh do mhisneach le dul i bhfiontar sceimhle siceolaioch Jekyll agus Hyde. Is i Londain Shasanna ata an t-ursceal suite mar dhea, ach ta gach uile leathanach de ar maos in atmaisfear durunda Dhun Eideann-an ait ar rugadh Robert Louis Stevenson. An fabhalsceal Freudach, fathsceal moraltachta no allagoire aerach e? Is futsa a chinneadh. ---- "He had in his hand a heavy cane, with which he was trifling; but he answered never a word, and seemed to listen with an ill-contained impatience. And then all of a sudden he broke out in a great flame of anger, stamping with his foot, brandishing the cane, and carrying on (as the maid described it) like a madman. The old gentleman took a step back, with the air of one very much surprised and a trifle hurt; and at that Mr Hyde broke out of all bounds and clubbed him to the earth. And next moment, with ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim under foot and hailing down a storm of blows, under which the bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway." --- A horrifying tale of terror that will bewilder and amaze its readers. Forget the light renditions of it that you have seen in films and gather your courage to venture into the psychological terror of Jekyll and Hyde. It is in London England that the novel is supposedly set, but every page is drenched in the mysterious atmosphere of Edinburgh-where Robert Louis Stevenson was born. Is it a Freudian fable, a morality parable or a sexual allegory? Its up to you to decide."
"Bhí ina lámh aige bata trom, agus é ag imirt leis; ach níor fhreagair sé focal, agus ba dhóigh le duine air go raibh sé ag éisteacht le mífhoighne ba dheacair a chosc. Agus ansin ar iompú na boise bhris ar an bhfoighne aige le rabharta feirge, bhuail sé a leathchos in aghaidh an talaimh, bheartaigh sé an bata, agus diompair sé é féin ar nós duine buile. Chuaigh an seanduine uasal coiscéim ar gcúl, agus cosúlacht air go raibh ionadh air agus é goillte beagán. Leis sin chuaigh Mr Hyde thar na bearta ar fad, agus leag sé ar talamh le buille bata é. Agus nóiméad ina dhiaidh sin, le fíochmhaire ápa, bhí sé ag satailt ar an gcorpán faoina chosa, é ag radadh stoirme buillí anuas air a bhris na cnámha le torann agus a thug ar an gcorp damhsa ar an mbóthar."
