Scandalous desecration of his _dun_; its situation and vast
size; its existence another proof of the general truth of
Irish history--Cuchulainn, the Irish Hercules--Origin of
his name--Nothing told about his size or stature--Total
ignorance about Cuchulainn in his birth-place; immensity
of the literature in which he figures--Literary industry of
early Irish monks--Cuchulainn loved by women; his abduction
of Eimer; his _liaison_ with Fann; the tract about him in
the Book of the Dun Cow--Fann's rhapsody--"Cuchulainn's
Death" from the Book of Leinster; beauty of the view from
his _dun_--Numerous antiquities of the County Louth--The
Cooley and Mourne mountains--Neglect of the scenery of
Louth and Down.
