Eithne or The Siege of Armagh: A Drama, in Four Acts is a play written by John Alphonsus Lanigan and published in 1872. The story is set in ancient Ireland during the fifth century and revolves around the siege of the city of Armagh by the pagan king, Cairbre. The main character, Eithne, is a Christian woman who is caught in the middle of the conflict between the Christians and the pagans. She is torn between her love for her pagan husband, Cairbre, and her faith in Christianity. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, faith, and the clash of cultures. It also portrays the struggle of the early Christians in Ireland against the pagan traditions and beliefs. The play is divided into four acts, each depicting a different phase of the siege of Armagh. The characters are well-developed, and the dialogue is engaging and thought-provoking. Overall, Eithne or The Siege of Armagh is a compelling drama that offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of ancient Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
