   • 1671, Gabriel Feixoo, Contenda dos labradores de Caldelas:

     Homes, jentes à rribeira,
     tocai ò sino apilido,
     que esta o Roleiro firido
     polo medio da moleira.
     rapaces, mulleres, bellos
     eilos ben nunha bandada

     Men, people, to the banks!
     Toll the bells, alarm!
     Roleiro is wounded
     by the middle of the head.
     Young ones, women, elders
     here they come together in a flock
