- (continued from previous page)"I will send you to a place where you will do no more damage." "Wherever you will send me I will do more damage than what I am doing here", said she."I will send you out to mid ocean", said the priest."I will not let a ship pass that I will not destroy" said she. "I have another plan for you" said the priest. "I will send you to the Dead Sea where no ship will pass" and it is said that he banished the Sprid to the Dead Sea that night. The priest told the boy not to be out late any other night. The boy went home and he enquired what priest was there that night. Every priest denied that he was there. An old man told him by the description he gave him that he was a priest that was in Ross Carbery and was long dead. The Sprid told the priest every deed she did in Cnoc Óra.
