You are mocking me;

You think I am not worthy to be fought.

But I’ll not wrangle but with this talkative knife.

CUCHULAIN.

Put up your sword; I am not mocking you.

I’d have you for my friend, but if it’s not

Because you have a hot heart and a cold eye,

I cannot tell the reason.

[To CONCHUBAR.] He has got her fierceness,

And nobody is as fierce as those pale women.
