|Description=Short narrative about two pious women, Rícenn, daughter of the king of Uí Maine, and her tutoress Caírech Dergáin, nun at Clúain Bairenn. When Tipraite, the king of Thomond, intends to marry Caírech, she asks Rícenn to go in her stead. While Caírech is able to keep her vow of chastity in this way, Rícenn agrees to marry the king and succeeds in eliciting from him a number of pious acts, including the construction of two churches. When she is widowed, she entrusts land to Ciarán, God and Caírech. | |||
