Urard seems to be saying he can wound with satire just as the warriors wounded 
with spears. See the poem composed c.1599 by Tadhg mac Dáire Mac 
Bruaideadha entitled “Tairgidh mo sheachna a Shíol mBriain” (McLaughlin, Roisin, 
“A threat of satire by Tadhg (mac Dáire) Mac Bruaideadha”, Ériu 55 (2005): 37–
57) readable online at JSTOR. This poem seems to be influenced by Airec 
Menman.
