 Mogha Nuadhat, against the Ultonians, in which 

 (battle) fell the three Ferguses, viz. Fergus of 

 the Long Hair, and Fergus of the Crooked Teeth, 

 and Fergus of the Black Teeth, by the one young 

 hero, Lugaid Lagha, who brought their three 

 heads and presented them to Cormac as Eric for 

 his father Art, the son of Con, who had been 

 killed in Magh Mucrime. And Teige gained four 

 battles on that one day, viz. the battle of Conach- 

 aigh, the battle of Sithbe, the battle of Druim 

 Fuaid, and the battle of Carraig Eolairg.
