The Feast of Bricriu is a book written by George Henderson. It is a collection of ancient Irish tales that revolve around the character of Bricriu, a mischievous and cunning figure who enjoys causing trouble and stirring up conflict. The book is set in the world of Irish mythology and features many well-known characters such as Cu Chulainn, Conall Cernach, and King Ailill. The stories are full of action, adventure, and humor, with Bricriu often playing the role of trickster and instigator. The book provides a fascinating insight into the culture and beliefs of ancient Ireland, and is a must-read for anyone interested in mythology, folklore, or Irish history.Cuchulainn anon sought out the womenfolk, and took thrice fifty needles from them. These he tossed up one after the other. Each needle went into the eye of the other, till in that wise they were joined together. He returned to the women, and gave each her own needle into her hand. The young braves praised Cuchulainn. Whereupon they bade farewell to the king, the queen, and household as well.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
