The Ancient Irish Epic Tale Táin Bó Cúalnge

In these single-handed fights;

Warrior's deeds I cannot do,

Now that I must fight alone!"1

2Although Cuchulain spoke thus, he had no strength for Laeg to leave him.2

This then is the Combat of Loch Mor ('the Great') son of Mofemis against Cuchulain on the Driving of the Kine of Cualnge.
