summary: 'The passage describes the Dagda having a rath built around his son''s
grave, then recounts several traditions about Angus Og: his visible appearance
to King Cormac with a golden-adorned dress, silver harp, birds, music, and prophecy;
the birds made from his kisses; his frightening effect on teams and cattle; his
and Midhir''s intervention with settlers; the abduction of Enghi at a Samhain
gathering; the enchantment of Derbrenn''s fosterlings into swine, their pursuit,
conditions involving a tree and salmon, and their deaths; and Angus bringing Caer
Ormaith to Brugh na Boinn.'
