Reading edition

In regard to the story and incident of the dagger, there was a song made, of which the writer has only been able to get the following verse:—

This is the dirk that killed your father, And it has not refused you yet, Farewell to you from the side of the channel. “Holoagaich h-ol-ò Sud a’ bhiodag a mharbh d’ athair, ’S cha do dhiùlt i ri thusa fhathast; Soraidh leat o thaobh a’ chaoil.”

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
