"Life and health, my good master, from Fionn, the son of Uail, the son of Baiscne," said she to Fergus. "Life and health back to Fionn," he replied. "Come into the house and give your message, but leave the dog outside, for I don't like dogs." "The dog comes in," the messenger replied. "How is that?" cried Fergus angrily.
Whatever was thought, what the king said was as direct in utterance as it was in observation. "If Uail the son of Baiscne has a son," said the king, "you would surely be that son." We are not told if the King of Finntraigh said anything more, but we know that Fionn left his service soon afterwards.
I cannot escape from him," she said, "and I am afraid," and at that she wept noiselessly and stared on Fionn. "He is my enemy," Fionn growled. "I name him as my enemy." "You will protect me," she implored. "Where I am let him not come," said Fionn. "I also have knowledge. I am Fionn, the son of Uail, the son of Baiscne, a man among men and a god where the gods are."
Now Fionn, the son of Uail, was the reverse of Fergus Fionnliath in this matter, for he delighted in dogs, and he knew everything about them from the setting of the first little white tooth to the rocking of the last long yellow one.
They knew only too well that the son of Uail was living, and they knew that their own sons would know no ease while that son lived; for they believed in those days that like breeds like, and that the son of Uail would be Uail with additions. His guardians knew that their hiding-place must at last be discovered, and that, when it was found, the sons of Morna would come.
