    echo of the shout from the opposite side of the cliff, she immediately plunged in and swam across, but as she reached the shore the voice came from the side she had left and when she returned the echo came resounding again from the opposite cliff. And so she crossed and increased, till the dreadful dying shouts of Forgoman so overwhelmed her with grief and terror, that she sank in the middle of the lake and was drowned. It was called Loch Finn the lake of Finn and also gave its name to the river.
