This latest collection of legends has many sparkling stories. How ‘The Boyne Was Born’ sees Princess Boann disobeying just about everybody who warned her to stay away from The Well of Wisdom.
But, accompanied by her dog, Dabilla, she reaches the well and, ignoring his frantic barking, removes the wooden covering.
This releases a torrent of water which sweeps her and Darbilla along past the horrified onlookers in her castle.
Soon danger turns to exhileration as she nears the sea, now filled with centuries old knowledge.
She becomes the goddess of the Boyne river , while Dabilla becomes a rock on the seashore.
In ‘How Áengus Tricked The Dagda’, Boann reappears to help her son Áengus acquire some territory from her husband Dagda. Áengus has to use his wit to claim his birthright.
