Dinnshenchas of Loch nDechet (Loch Techet), usually identified as Lough Gara, versions of which occur in both prose and verse. The lake is said to derive its name from a certain Dechet, a rath-builder who was generously rewarded for his work and received the produce of Ess Ruaid (Assaroe) as his provisions. However, he ate and drank so much that he ended up going mad and drowned in the lake.
