You knew him, then?
BLIND MAN.
I saw him, when I had my eyes, in Aoife's country.
CUCHULAIN.
You were in Aoife's country?
BLIND MAN.
I knew him and his mother there.
CUCHULAIN.
He was about to speak of her when he died.
BLIND MAN.
He was a queen's son.
CUCHULAIN.
What queen? what queen? [_Seizes BLIND MAN, who is now sitting upon the
bench.
_] Was it Scathach? There were many queens. All the rulers there
were queens.
BLIND MAN.
No, not Scathach.
CUCHULAIN.
It was Uathach, then? Speak! speak!
BLIND MAN.
I cannot speak; you are clutching me too tightly. [_CUCHULAIN lets him
go. _] I cannot remember who it was. I am not certain. It was some queen.
FOOL.
