    Unknown.........(The Teine Bo Cullaine) Errrrrrrrrr........... that is written in Irish, and is the oldest piece of literature written in prose rather than verse.

    It means "The Cattle Raid of the White Bull".............. it is totally pre-Christian............... like one of the High Kings' wives offers "her warm and friendly thighs" for the loan of the Brown Bull............
