Acallam na senórach ll. 872–946. The hunt on Cenn Abrat
Bran mac Deirg, son of the king of Munster, arrives to pay homage to Patrick and to learn the arts of the fían (fiannaigecht) with Caílte. The entire company sets out for Cenn Abrat (Ballyhowra Mountains).
Caílte remembers how the Fían attempted to hunt an elusive stag known as Líath na Trí mBenn.
While Patrick stays at Ardpatrick, a hunt is organised about the Lake of Cows. On refusing to share his bounty with the churchmen, Bran is struck with abdominal pain and Patrick cures him in return for customary tribute. Caílte urges his hunting company to move on and recites a last poem before departure.Nír' chian dóibh iarsin co facadar in dirim degh-shluaig da n-innsaigid
