Overview

Excerpt from Told at the Feis: Stories of Ancient Ireland Both warriors approached with great caution until they came within speaking distance of each other, when each of them planted his shield in front of him to cover his body, and viewed the other over its border with inquiring eyes. Bras was the first to break silence, and Sreng was de lighted to hear himself addressed in his own language, for Gaelic was the mother-tongue of each. They now drew near to each other, and each examined the sword spears and shield of the other, and in this examination they discovered a very marked difference in the shape and excellence of the weapons - Sreng being armed with two heavy, thick, bluntly-pointed spears, while Bras carried two beautifully shaped, thin, long, slender, sharp-pointed spears.
