It was then that Celtchar in his sleep uttered these words in the midst of the men of Ulster in Iraird Cuillinn that night: |
Is and-sain rabert Celtchair na briathra sa inossa ac Ultaib i n-Iraird Chullend inn aidchi sin: |
"Thirty hundred chariot-men; |
trícha chet n-arad. |
On that same night Cormac Conlongas, Conchobar's son, spake these words to the men of Erin at Slemain Mide that night: |
Isí inn adaig cétna rabert Cormac Condlongas mac Conchobair na briathra sa ac feraib hErend, ac Slemain Mide inn aidchi sin: |
"A wonder of a morning, |
Amra maitne |
On that same night, Dubthach Doel ('the Scorpion') of Ulster uttered these words in his sleep among the men of Erin at Slemain Mide that night: |
Is hí inn adaig cétna rabert Dubthach Dael Ulad na briathra sa oc feraib hErend, i Slemain Mide inn aidchi sin: |
"Great be the morn, |
Móra maitne. |
Dubthach was awakened from his sleep, so that Nemain brought confusion on the host and they fell trembling in their arms under the points of their spears and weapons, so that an hundred warriors of them fell dead in the midst of their camp and quarters at the fearfulness of the shout they heard on high. Be that as it would, that night was not the calmest for the men of Erin that they passed before or since, because of the forebodings and predictions and because of the spectres and visions that were revealed to them. |
And-sain confuchtaither Dubthach trina chotlud, co ro
mesc ind Neamain bar sin slóg, collotar i n-armgrith
bha rennaib a sleg & a faebor, co n-ébailt
cét láech díb ar lar a n-dúnaid
& allon |
