Connors cunning (Remastered x2)

[MALE Voice 1] Then shall I send forth one among my bravest— Conall with the ardor of a lynx, Hound of fierce hulainn, Fergus the Great Stallion of my kindred— Who loves me dearest? [MALE Voice 2 – Conall] What should I do if, sent to guard the exiles, they were struck down by treachery and cunning? None would escape me, not a hand nor whisper, wound for wound then ,blood would pay blood then. [MALE Voice 1] You are not mine, not deepest in your spirit. Turn then to you—the Hound of bold Chulainn, speak, would you shield them, even if your master willed they be killed and so slaughtered? [MALE Voice 2 – The Hound of Chulainn] By my own vow, if such a deed were carried out with your knowledge, neither gold nor silver, bribe nor repentance could prevent your ending— I'd strike your own head from off your body. [MALE Voice 1] Then it is clear—your love is not unshaken. What of you, Fergus, Great Stallion of Ulster, if they were killed while riding under promise, say now and speak truely what would you answer? [MALE Voice 2 – The Great Stallion] All I would punish, all who played a part there— save for the king, whose right stands over judgment. He may spill blood, though I would grieve in silence— while tears i may be weeping I’d raise no sword then. [MALE Voice 1] Then you shall go. Rise early in the dawning. Let no soft bed nor drink delay your footsteps. Should you find peril waiting at Borrach’s, send them on to me so swiftly.
