Re: Naoise
Hi Glitzy !!!The story of Naoise is quite confusing..
I checked it...Naoise was the grandson of a King.
This King decided to marry a beautiful girl named Deirdre of years and years younger than he.
But she felt in love with Naoise and together they ran away. The King found them and killed Naoise, wed Deirdre and then as she used to hate him decided to leave her with his warrior. She died of grief or committed suicide.What a tragedy!
Naoise is the symbol of true love?Is this story well-known and important in Ireland (like Romeo and Juliet) or it is rare that someone knows it?
