Congal: A Poem, in Five Books (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from Congal: A Poem, in Five Books

As an historic event, the Battle of Moyra is known to have taken place in a.d. 637, and is referred with reasonable certainty to the Tuesday which fell on the 24th of June in that year. I give my adhesion to the views of those who regard it as the expiring effort of the Pagan and Bardic party in Ireland, against the newly-consolidated power of Church and Crown, alleging, for its casus belli, the obligations which Domnal, the then monarch, had incurred to Conga], the dis appointed sub-king of Ulster, as indicated in the Poem.
