Um, as I recall, he was a stud bull, so he'd better be a live bull...

I haven't read the Tain in ages... you really ought to look it up!
 Greeks may have gone about stealing women,  the Irish had women
teaching the men how to fight... a bit different! And I need to reread
it. Great stories, they are.
