Airec Menman Uraird maic Coise

Airec Menman Uraird maic Coise (Stratagem of Aurard mac Cosse), an Irish saga which tells how the 10th-cent. poet Aurard mac Cosse received compensation for losses sustained by him from the King of Tara, Domnall mac Muirchertaig (d. 980). Aurard lists the titles of the stories he can tell, thereby providing one of the two extant versions of the medieval Irish tale-list.
