Conflict of Riders to the Sea?
After Nine days of constant grieving for her missing son, Michael, old
Maurya is fallen into a restless sleep. Her daughter, Cathleen, is busy
with household tasks, when another daughter, Nora, slips quietly into
the kitchen with a bundle given her by the young priest. It contains
part of the clothes taken from the body of a drowned man far in the
north. They have been sent to the family for identification, since the
clothes may belong to her missing brother.
The girls go to open the package but then decide to hide it in case
their mother, who is waking up, should come in and see them crying.
Maurya enters. After the sea had claimed the lives of her husband
and four eldest sons, Maurya tries to discourage Bartley, her last
living son, from going to Connemara to sell a horse, which was the
trip Michael took when he died. But Bartley insists that he will cross
the mainland in spite of winds and high seas.
Mad and aggravated at Bartley for not listening to her pleas, Maurya
allows him to go, however, without her blessing. Cathleen and Nora
persuade their mother to chase Bartley with the food they forgot to
give him and to give him her blessing regardless of her fears. While
she is gone the girls open the package. Nora recognizes her own
stitching in one of the socks, and immediately knows that the owner
of the clothes was indeed her brother, Michael. Their only comfort is
the hope that his body has been given a good Christian burial where
it was washed up.
Maurya returns horrified with a vision she has seen of Michael riding
on the horse behind Bartley. She claims that the vision proves that
her fear of Bartley's death is being realized. When her daughters
show Maurya the clothes her only response is that the boards she
bought for Michael's coffin will serve for Bartley instead.
As Maurya speaks the neighboring women enter keening. The Men
follow shortly, carrying the body of Bartley who has been knocked off
a cliff into the waves by the horse he was intending to sell. The play
closes on the note of Maurya's accepting surrender to the sea, and
to the course of life: "They're all gone now and there isn't anything
mire the sea can do to me… No man at all can be living forever and
we must be satisfied."
