Excerpt from The Triumph and Passing of Cuculain

Therefore was the plain sacred and untilled, unfurrowed by the plough of any husbandman, nor hardened by his industrious spade. NO farmer gathered there corent or glaisin or rue, nor reaped his flaxen harvest but the immense plain lay, from age to age, a pure and undese crated soil, and there pious meetings were held around the grave of Uta by his people, and there rude parliaments of the princes of the Clan Uta, and there warlike congregations.

Excerpt from The Triumph and Passing of Cuculain

Green-sided and smooth was this cairn, a grassy and flower-adorned hill, and upon its top there grew a great elm-tree.

Therefore was the plain sacred and untilled, unfurrowed by the plough of any husbandman, nor hardened by his industrious spade. No farmer gathered there corcur or glaisin or rue, nor reaped his flaxen harvest; but the immense plain lay, from age to age, a pure and undesecrated soil, and there pious meetings were held around the grave of Uta by his people, and there rude parliaments of the princes of the Clan Uta, and there warlike congregations.

When the moon rose over Fremain on the night of the second day of the month of Belthiné, her beams were reflected from the burnished points of innumerable spears, the bright faces of shields, and the ornamented handles of swords, and illuminated a hundred embroidered banners, that floated over the tent-doors of the kings of the Four Provinces of Eire.
