Commentary

In the Annals of the Four Masters, there is only one entry for 566 A.D:

  • After Ainmire, son of Sedna, was three years in the sovereignty of Ireland, he was slain by Fearghus, son of Nellin, of which was said:
Feimhin, while he was king,
Was not a place without bravery,
Today dark red its aspect,
Being set on fire by Ainmire, son of Seadna.
