Aengus and Edain ran up out of the wave—

You’d never doubt that it was life they promised

Had you looked on them face to face as I did,

With so red lips, and running on such feet,

And having such wide-open, shining eyes.

AIBRIC.

It’s certain they are leading you to death.

None but the dead, or those that never lived,

Can know that ecstasy. Forgael! Forgael!

They have made you follow the man-headed birds,
