CUCHULAIN.

I have not said it.

CONCHUBAR.

Ah! I remember I have heard you boast,

When the ale was in your blood, that there was one

In Scotland, where you had learnt the trade of war,

That had a stone-pale cheek and red-brown hair.

And that although you had loved other women,

You’d sooner that fierce woman of the camp

Bore you a son than any queen among them.
