"Now for Black FitzWilliam's head, we'll send it over dripping red, to Liza and her ladies". Fucking great! That's how you handle shit when an oppressor brings it to you.

. Fiach was one of the last of the Gaelic Chieftains surrender to Queen Lizzie. Wicklow was the last county set up under British rule due to the O'Byrne's , O'Tooles and the Kavanaghs being a feckin nuisance :). From the 12th century these clans were notorious for coming into Dublin, annoying the citizens, gettin drunk in the taverns Christchurch . Every so often some would be axed and their heads put on spikes on the city walls as a deterrent . Usually worked for a week or two :)
