76 The Fians.
The one who had a mouthful of shell-fish and of the
Grey-cheeked cow's {Glas-ghoileain) milk at the time
squirted out the unsavoury morsel, and the place where
this was done is called the Rock of the Mouthful {Creagan
a- hJialgJiini). The rock at the place is certainly coloured,
or rather discoloured, as if it had been done by the
mouthful thus thrown out. Immediately the heroes set
off to where the chase was to be found.
The bed of the Grey-cheeked Cow {Glas-ghoilcam) is
at the Kid Rock {Creag nam meami), behind Kinsburgh
{Cinueboro), in Skye. It is said that Hiniosdail, in
Skye, was one of her grazing places. The other places
where it grazed in Skye were:
" Eisgeadal is Toisgeadal,
'S earn a' Choin is Braigh Bhran,
'S Uisgeseadar 's Suileseadar
'S a' Bheinn Mhoraig ceann an loch,
'S Acha-choirc as Malagan."
