abduction dervogilla 500 pink | The amorous flight of Dermot Mac Murrough King of Leinster with Dervorgilla, wife of his enemy, Tiernan O'Rourke, King of Breffni is depicted in this panel. Brehon Law, liberal but precise, dictated that Dermot, for this impudence, would pay a fine of 100 ounces of gold to the injured husband. The fact that Dermot failed to comply, possibly changed the course of Irish history. | |
