"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get,—the harp of Teirtu to play to us that night. When a man desires that it should play, it does so of itself, and when he desires that it should cease it ceases. And this he will not give of his own free will, and thou wilt not be able to compel him."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get,—the caldron of Diwrnach Wyddel, the steward of Odgar the son of Aedd, King of Ireland, to boil the meat for thy marriage-feast."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get. It is needful for me to wash my head, and shave my beard; and I require the tusk of Yskithyrwyn Benbaedd to shave myself withal, neither shall I profit by its use if it be not plucked alive out of his head."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get. There is no one in the world that can pluck it out of his head, except Odgar the son of Aedd, King of Ireland."
"It will be easy for me to compass this."
"Though thou get this, there is yet that which thou wilt not get. I will not trust any one to keep the tusk, except Gado of North Britain. Now the threescore Cantrevs of North Britain are under his sway; and of his own free will he will not come out of his kingdom, and thou wilt not be able to compel him."
"It will be easy for me to compass this, although thou mayest think that it will not be easy."
