The harp was forbidden by the Dagda from issuing any sound, unless thus called upon by the names, [32] which translate to "Oak of Two Meadows" [33] and "the Four Angled Music"; [34] Hence, harp was a richly ornamented magic harp made of oak which, when the Dagda played it, put the seasons in their correct order; [citation needed] The Dagda had ...
Cauldron (coire) of the Dagda No company ever went away from it unsatisfied (also known as the Coire ansic ). A. C. L. Brown and R. S. Loomis equate Lug's spear with the Lúin of Celtchar , which in Togail Bruidne Dá Derga is said to have been discovered in the Battle of Mag Tuired.

The principle justification given for Bodb's election is that he is the Dagda's eldest son. He subsequently fathered many deities. Bodb's election is recognised by all of his rivals, save only Lir, who refuses him homage. Bodb, however, counsels his followers to forbear from punishing Lir; later, Bodb will successively offer two of his own ...
