Note 11 — Chapter XXXVII

This, like most of the couple of thousand verses scattered throughout the "Colloquy of the Ancients," is in Deibhidh metre, which would thus run in English:—

"Cold the Winter, cold the Wind, The Raging stag is Ravin'd, Though in one Flag the Floodgates cling, The Steaming Stag is belling."
