Diarmit had been strong enough to obtain for himself the position of King of Leinster, but in 1166 Tighernan, with the help of Ruadhri of Connaught, High King of Ireland, defeated him and banished him from Ireland. Henry II of England refused to give him aid, but allowed his subjects to fight under his banner. The allies of Diar- mit were chiefly drawn from South Wales. Pembroke did not at first join his standard, declining to move without Henry's special licence, even though Diarmit promised h...im his daughter in marriage and what, by Irish law, was not his to give the successi n to the throne of Leinster. But Robert Fitz Stephen and Maurice Fitz Gerald landed at Ban now in May, 1169, and brought with them Maurice de Prendergast, 'a lustie and hardie man/ in Holinshed's phrase. They had been promised the towns of the Ostmen or Norsemen who had settled in County Wexford. Their first triumph was the capture of the town of Wexford, and thence they spread over the whole of Leinster, dividing the spoils as they went along.
