Summary
In this Heroic Lay, we are told the story of how the 'Muilgheartach' was sent over to Ireland to annihilate the Fingalians. The King of Ireland wished to destroy them, and so he went to see the King of Norway. They came up with a plan in which the Norwegian King sent his fearsome witch, the 'Muilgheartach', over to Ireland to kill the enemy.
