 |Description=At Beltaine, Diarmait holds the assembly of Uisnech (''dál Uisnig''), in line with customary practice. The three major gatherings (''ard-dála'') at that time are the assembly of Uisnech (''dál Uisnig'') at Beltaine; the fair/assembly of Tailtiu (''óenach Tailten'') at Lugnasad; and the feast of Tara (''féis Temrach'') at Samain. Anyone who disturbs<!---or violate the regulations current at that time?----> these activities incurs the death penalty. Ciarán is invited to the gathering.
-Before the assembly begins, the king waits for Ciarán at Cnoc mBracáin, at a place known since as Tulach na Comnaide (Hill of halting). Diarmait, thankful for the blessing that  brought him the kingship, donates to him the stretch of land on which they stand, including its cattle and oxen. The matter is complicated by the fact that an enemy of the king, Flann Find mac Díma, dwells in the same territory (Tulach Dhíma or Tulach Flainn is named for him). Diarmait sets the warrior's house on fire and the warrior dies a threefold death by fire, earth and water: having sustained severe injuries inside the burning house, he steps into a bath of water and dies there.

+An enemy of the king, Flann Finn mac Díma, dwells in the same territory (Tulach Dhíma or Tulach Flainn is named for him). Diarmait sets the warrior's house on fire and the warrior appears to die a threefold death by burning, wounding and drowning: having sustained severe injuries inside the burning house, he steps into a bath of water and dies there.
+Ciarán reproaches Diarmait for this transgression and predicts for him a similar death by wounding, drowning and burning. Diarmait is shocked to hear this.
