It was a wonderful sight and a great deed this binding of the Fianna, and the three sisters laughed with a joy that was terrible to hear and was almost death to see. As the men were captured they were carried by the hags into dark mysterious holes and black perplexing labyrinths. "Here is another one," cried Caevo'g as she bundled a trussed champion along.
Conaran called these three to him. "Fionn is alone," said he. "Fionn is alone, my treasures." "Ah!" said Caevo'g, and her jaw crunched upwards and stuck outwards, as was usual with her when she was satisfied. "When the chance comes take it," Conaran continued, and he smiled a black, beetle-browed, unbenevolent smile.
They had moustaches poking under their noses and woolly wads growing out of their ears, so that when you looked at them the first time you never wanted to look at them again, and if you had to look at them a second time you were likely to die of the sight. They were called Caevo'g, Cuillen, and Iaran. The fourth daughter, Iarnach, was not present at that moment, so nothing need be said of her yet.
But Fionn was thinking of other things. "If there was any way of warning the Fianna not to come here," Fionn murmured. "There is no way, my darling," said Caevo'g, and she smiled a smile that would have killed Fionn, only that he shut his eyes in time. After a moment he murmured again: "Cona'n, my dear love, give the warning whistle so that the Fianna will keep out of this place."
Then they smiled a smile that was agreeable to their own eyes, but which would have been a deadly thing for anybody else to see. "But Fionn cannot see us," Caevo'g objected, and her brow set downwards and her chin set upwards and her mouth squeezed sidewards, so that her face looked like a badly disappointed nut.
"We will kill that one first," said Caevo'g. "There is only one of him," said Cuillen. "And each of us three is the match for an hundred," said Iaran. The uncanny, misbehaved, and outrageous harridans advanced then to meet the son of Morna, and when he saw these three Goll whipped the sword from his thigh, swung his buckler round, and got to them in ten great leaps.
