Summary
An Ossianic ballad which tells the story of the black hound. Caoilte was out hunting on the hill one day when he met an ugly man with a black hound. The man wanted the Fingalians to get their dogs to fight it. The black hound killed many dogs belonging to the Fingalians, but eventually it was killed by Fionn's dog Bran.
