The sixth stanza of the poem is quoted as an example of the metre called from its swinging rhythm, lúasc, see-saw, or láid lúascach, in the metrical treatise edited by Thurneysen, Irische Texte iii, pp. 55 and 87; and the same stanza is cited in a glossary in H. 3. 18, p. 423, to illustrate the use of the word bras .i. móor.
