increased by the royal dead;
not well do you bring the fight
to this solitary blade.

the nine heads under his bed,

our fragments, like these ten heads.

raised above the lines for him,
and I see that your great queen
dare not risk her life or limb.

to surround him and cut short
the reign of the Torqued Man.
And Fergus replied:
Consign Dubthach Beetle-Tongue
to the back of the army!
Nothing but harm has he done
since the young maidens were slain.4
