"A little wee woman with a red hat and kerchief around her neck, an' she said, 'Go straight to Piper Tim an' tell him to play "The Call o' the Sidhe" as he sits on the Round Stone, for this is th' day of the Cruachan Whistle."
There should be no lowe on this side of the fort after nightfall, unless the warders on the other side have news from the hills behind Dunchuach. In this matter of fire at night Dunchuach echoes Ben Bhuidhe or Ben Bhrec, and these two in their turn carry on the light of our friends farther ben in Bredalbane and Cruachan.
The road which winds round Ben Cruachan was fully visible from the door of the bothy, when a party of five Highland soldiers, whose arms glanced in the sun, wheeled suddenly into sight from the most distant extremity, where the highway is hidden behind the mountain.
Macintosh. O, it's been a scandal! "The great Argyle he gaed before, He gart the cannons and guns to roar, and the very macer cried 'Cruachan! But now that I have got you again I'll never despair. The oak shall go over the myrtle yet; we'll ding the Campbells yet in their own town. Praise God that I should see the day!"
"It won't take many minutes once it's well a going, and there's fire enough on the hearth to set Ben Cruachan in a blaze!" "Is everything out of it?" demanded the chief. "All but her cat. We've done our best, sir, and searched everywhere, but he's not to be found. There's nothing else left." "It's a lie!" screamed Mistress Conal.
Then he raised his big boot and gave the boat a kick that drove it seven leagues out into the sea, and that was how the adventure of Cael of the Iron finished. "Who are you, sir?" said Fionn to the Carl. But before answering the Carl's shape changed into one of splendour and delight. "I am ruler of the Shi' of Rath Cruachan," he said.
This minds me painfully of my young days, when I ran in a ragged kilt in the cold heather of Cruachan. I must be getting an old man, Andrew, for I never thought the hills could freeze my blood." Suddenly the fog lightened a little, the slope ceased, and we had that gust of freer air which means the top of the pass.
and the very macer cried 'Cruachan! But now that I have got you again I'll never despair. The oak shall go over the myrtle yet; we'll ding the Campbells yet in their own town. Praise God that I should see the day!" He was leaping with excitement, emptied out his mails upon the floor that I might have a change of clothes, and incommoded me with his assistance as I changed.
There is a man from him in Dromanna-Bregh; there is another man from him in Sliabh-Slainge i.e., Domangart, son of Eochaidh. It is he that will raise Patrick's relics a little before the Judgment. Patrick's charioteer died, moreover, and was buried between Cruachan and the sea.
"What will you accept, then?" asked the angel. "Here it is," said Patrick: "that I should bring from hell on the Day of Judgment seven persons for every hair in this casula." "It shall be granted to you," said the angel; "and depart from this Cruachan." "I will not depart," said Patrick, "for I have been tormented, until I am gratified." "Is there anything else you demand?" asked the angel.
