Because this seems thelog ical ending, and all that follows detracts from the unity Of the central theme, I have carried the story only as far as the end Of paragraph four teen, where occur the words The stories of E0 chaid and Etain are here related. The courtship plays SO small a part both in the original Irish and in my adaptation, that I have chosen The Story of Ailill and Etain as the most fitting title.
