 From atāaid to the end of the poem has been inked over carelessly in black by a later hand, and it is not always easy to make out what was beneath. Line 2116 is corrupt, possibly the MS reads lagshell under the black ink. The second illegible letter seems to be a d or an o, certainly not t or c. Read ataid 'n-a laighe for the first part of the line? Compare however Laighell Luath-bhuilledhach who was killed together with Fiacha Baicedha, l. 1929? But as it stands that would make no sense. laighell would give good rhyme with tenn, in which case something is lost before it. But the illegible letters show that the loss is after. 🢀
 The obscure letters in this line appear to be darran-(with dot over hyphen) triana (so the black ink; underneath perhaps trena) atancqd (or underneath perhaps atincqd; the last four letters extremely obscure). The ending should be a monosyllable in -uaidh to give deibhidhe rhyme with arm-ruaidh. But in any case the line is too long as it stands. 🢀
