Then reared Liath ('the Roan') of Macha under Sualtaim and dashed on to the ramparts of Emain. Thereat 4Sualtaim fell under his own shield, so that4 his own shield turned on Sualtaim and the 5scalloped5 edge of the shield severed Sualtaim's head, 6though others say he was asleep on the stone, and that he fell thence onto his shield on awaking.6 7Hence this is the 'Tragical Death of Sualtaim.'7
