O Conchobair Ruad's descendants and Brian Ballach's descendants, with their gallowglasses and Irish, made an attack on Nadnaveagh.

Exceeding great frost and snow and stormy weather this year, so that no herb grew in the ground and no leaf budded on a tree until the feast of St. Brendan, but a man, if he were the stronger, would forcibly carry away the food from the priest in church, even though he had the Sacred Body in his hands and stood clothed in Mass-vestments.
