A Random Passage

Oh, to be a king in medieval Ireland!

> *Críth Gablach*, the major eighth-century tract on \[Irish\] social status, states: 'There is, too, a weekly order in the duty of a king: Sunday for drinking ale . . . ; Monday for judgement, for the adjustment of túatha; Tuesday for playing fidchell \[a board game\]; Wednesday for watching deer-hounds hunting; Thursday for sexual intercourse; Friday for horse-racing; Saturday for judging cases.'
