    All day long he watched and waited. Next morning the battle began. When the saint kept her hands up the Chieftain had the victory. When her hands fell down the other army had the victory.
    The saint kept her hands up and the chieftains beat his enemies back to Kerry. It was sunset when they reached Kerry and then the battle stopped. The other army had to retreat back to their ships and sail away. Since then they have not invaded the locality.
