715 The stars look forth from the clouds, Silently descending to the wave : Soon shall brightness come to the west,^ Showing all the foes of Cormac. Fillan, my son, take thou my spear — 720 Speed to Mora of the dusky brow ; Be thine eye on the range of the hills. And narrowly scan our foes : Watch the course of generous Ca-mor. I hear a noise from afar 725 Like rocky cairns which tumble down souls fpi^et the past. The red stars look on us from clouds, and silently descend. Soon shall the grey b...eam of the morning rise and show us the foes of Cormac. Fillan, my son, take thou the spear of the king ! Go to Mora's dark-brown side. Let thine eyes travel over ihe heath. Observe the foes of Fingal ; observe the course of generous Cathmor. I hear a distant sound like falling rocks in the DUAN I. He praises the prowess of his young fol- lowers, who will quite equal the deeds of their fatliers, and will not allow him in his old age to fall without re- He orders bards to raise a cheerful strain, and his warriors to prepare for combat on the following morning.
