The place is crawling with them," said he. Mongan pointed at Tibraide'. "Don't you know who that is?" he cried. "I know who he says he is," said the Chamberlain.
At that news the men of the household picked up clubs and cudgels and every kind of thing that was near, and made a violent and woeful attack on Tibraide''s men The King of Leinster came in then, and when he was told Tibraide' was Mongan he attacked them as well, and it was with difficulty that Tibraide' got away to Cell Camain with nine of his men and they all wounded.

"Won't you let them drown, master?" asked mac an Da'v.
