There will be the Brehons of legal 
judgment, 
There the Druids and good poets; 
In his mansion will be the au- 
thors of Erin, 
The chroniclers of triumphant 
histories. 
The musicians of Erin in vast 
numbers, 
The followers of every science in 
common, 
The flood of professors from all 
quarters, 
Are all journeying to one house,

There are long houses of beds 
On the smooth ridge of the dry 
eminence, 
In preparation for the company, 
Well furnished with woven cloth. 
« This exactly—‘ the smooth ridge of the dry eminence’— 
describes the terraced esker on which were erected wattle 
houses, covered with cloths like tents, and the poet then goes 
on to describe the respective streets, laid out for the accom- 
modation of each class, and if we suppose a terrace allotted to 
each, we exactly coincide with the locality.
