  1. An Old Story

    Share Share Post
    One day while the Fianna were out hunting in the wood & they saw a wiman sitting in the ditch. They asked her to come & work for them & she agreed. When she reached the palace they opened the gates and she went in. She worked for a long time in the palace.
    The Fianna were very pleased with the way she did everything. One day a lot of guests came. There was a man amongst them who took her away with him But one of the Fianna named Diarmuid O Duibhne and they lived a long time after.
