[Founded on the following Historical Fact: Cobthach, Usurper of the Throne of Munster, & Murderer of his Sovereign and Brother Laughaire, learns the existence of his Brother's Son Maon, and Moriat, his Wife (who, separated for some time under the Idea of each other's decease, become, the former, the wild Resident of a Gloomy Cavern; the latter, a wandering Fugitive), and employs Sitric, a Danish Chief, adopted as his Heir, to destroy them. Moriat, on consulting a Druid, likewise learns of her Husband's Fate, and dispatches Kildare, a faithful Follower, in pursuit of him. Sitric, by Accident, meets Moriat, is struck with her Beauty and relinquishes his design of Murder, with the Idea of gratifying his Passion. She repulses him, and he is foiled by the sudden appearance of Cobthach. She and her Infant [are] imprisoned in an ancient Round Tower, from which, endeavouring to accelerate her Escape, he is detected and abandoned by Cobthach. In the interim, Kildare finds out Maon, who quits his lurking place, and journeying in pursuit of his Wife, discovers the Place of her Confinement, to which Sitric proffers to lead him by a secret Pass, determining to dispatch him on the road. They enter the Cemetery appertaining to the Roung Tower, where he attempts several times to murder him, but is prevented by the appearance of Laughaire's apparition; at length they reach the Dungeon, time enough to save Moriat; and Sitric, urged by Love and Revenge, stabs Cobthach; but recollecting he destroys one Rival, only to render another happy, accuses Maon of the Murder, and dooms him to Death, which is timely prevented by the intervention of the faithful Kildare, and the Irish Peasantry. Sitric falls by the hands of Maon, who with Moriat, are restored to Happiness and Dominion.Founded on the following Historical Fact: Cobthach, Usurper of the Throne of Munster, & Murderer of his Sovereign and Brother Laughaire, learns the existence of his Brother's Son Maon, and Moriat, his Wife (who, separated for some time under the Idea of each other's decease, become, the former, the wild Resident of a Gloomy Cavern; the latter, a wandering Fugitive), and employs Sitric, a Danish Chief, adopted as his Heir, to destroy them.
