In J.M.Synges play "Riders to the Sea" The Bride Dara is mentioned by Maurya the mother of Bartley and Michael. The Bride Dara must like Maurya had a vision of loved ones who where dead. You can find the whole script of the play on http://emotionalliteracyeducation.com/classic_books_online/rdrse10.htm Hope this helps. --- "Bride" is an archaic form of the name "Brigid," one of the great pagan Goddesses of Ireland. Brigid was later "Christianized" and turned into one of the Catholic saints, who founded a double monastary and convent in Cill-Dara. "Bride Dara" is therefore a sort of shorthand way of saying "Brigid of Dara." Many of the myths surrounding the Goddess Brigid were tacked on to the saint by the common Irish people. One of these stories is of the death of Brigid's son. The story says that she invented keening while mourning the death of her son on the battlefield. This is the origin of Maura's allusion.

A tradgedy
Riders to the Sea is a one-act play that was written by John Millington Synge. One important quote is from Maurya who says, "No man at all can be living forever, and we must be satisfied."
style for riders to the sea
In J.M. Synge's play "Riders to the Sea," the mention of the Bay of Gregory of the Golden Mouth refers to a bay where fishermen take shelter during stormy weather. It serves as a contrast to the perilous sea where Maurya's sons have tragically perished, highlighting the harsh and unforgiving nature of the sea.
Because there are two riders riding to the sea.
Riders to the Sea - opera - was created in 1927.
The climax of any play or piece of literature is the moment of highest dramatic tension. However, this is commonly misunderstood to be the biggest visual event. Synge proves this is not always the case. In fact, the climax of any story is the moment when the major conflict is resolved. In the case of "Riders to the Sea" by John Millington Synge, the major conflict is Maurya and the sea. It is a "Man vs. Nature" story. Therefore, the climax of "Riders to the Sea" is the moment when Maurya makes peace with the sea by finding peace within herself. She accepts the sea's power, defers to the greatness of the sea, and signifies this resolution by raising her head. She then begins her monologue which verbally completes her acceptance of their fate. "They're all gone now and there isn't anything more the sea can do to me..." The rising action of the climax (the visual appearance of Bartley's body) is often argued to be the actual climactic moment, but the major conflict is not between Maurya and Bartley or Bartley and the sea. It is between Maurya and the sea. Thus, the resolution of the major conflict must focus strictly on Maurya and the sea. The appearance of Bartley's lifeless body on stage is merely the catalyst that begins Maurya's reversal of fortune and recognition, in the Aristotelian sense.
