The Rights of Ua Neill

His right from O Domhnaill; that he come with his full muster from Tarbh Chinn Chasla to Eas Ruaidh without regard to any benefit or adversity that might befall them. And these are the chiefs who come with O Domhnaill: O Baoighill from Tir Bhoghaine and Tir nAimhir, and O Maolghaoithe from Tuath I Mhaolghaoithe, and Mac Giolla Shamhais from Ros Buill, and O Breislein from Fanaid, and O Maoilegain from Magh gCaoraind, and O Muireadhiagh and O Conaill from Tuath Bhladhach, and O Toircheart from Cluain Eidheile and Mac Dhubhain from Tir Eanna, and Mag Fhionnachtaigh from Ard Mheg Fhionnachtaigh, and O Dochartaigh from Ard Miodhair and Mag Fhearghail from Tir Bhreasail, and Mag Loinnseachain from Gleann Finne. And if those familiess hould die out, the dutry of hosting rests upon the tribes themselves, exxcept the three free tribes of Muinter Chanannan in the territory of the Uí Chonaill themselves.
