The king told him he would not get her. At dusk Cúrió got two horses ready and brought the girl home. When he passed Tralee the king got up to him and they had a terrible battle. Cúrió cut off his hair and that time it was against the law to cut one's hair. One day Cúrió sent his men gathering stones to build a castle. When the men were gone the king came and killed Cúrió.
