“One day St Moling went to the king of Leinster...”
One day St Moling went to the king of Leinster, to get the rent reduced.
The king agreed, and the Saint went home. When he left the king, some:one asked the king did he know what he was after doing, and the king said, "he didn't. Then he sent his soldiers after the Saint. When the St saw them coming he made the Sign of the Cross over the Liffey, the river spread around the soldiers, so that the Saint got safely home.
