But Fionn had taken the covering from his spear, and with his brow pressed close to it he kept his mind and all his senses engaged on that sizzling, murderous point. The music ceased and Aillen hissed a fierce blue flame from his mouth, and it was as though he hissed lightning. Here it would seem that Fionn used magic, for spreading out his fringed mantle he caught the flame.
His pipe had been played and his timpan, all who heard that music should be asleep, and yet his fire was caught in full course and was quenched. Aillen, with all the terrific strength of which he was master, blew again, and the great jet of blue flame came roaring and whistling from him and was caught and disappeared.
He continued: "Aillen mac Midna will be off his guard when he stops playing and begins to blow his fire; he will think everybody is asleep; then you can deliver the attack you were speaking of, and all good luck go with it." "I will give him back his spear," said Fionn. "Here it is," said Fiacuil, taking the Birgha from under his cloak.
Panic swirled into the man from Faery; he turned from that terrible spot and fled, not knowing what might be behind, but dreading it as he had never before dreaded anything, and the unknown pursued him; that terrible defence became offence and hung to his heel as a wolf pads by the flank of a bull. And Aillen was not in his own world!
