and Murchad O'Carroll, marched with an army to<br />

Dublin to besiege the city, then in the possession <strong>of</strong><br />

Earl Strongbow, and Miles De Cogan. They remained<br />

<strong>of</strong> the common soldiers, and brought away with them<br />

provisions, armour, and horses.<br />
