Leabharcham was the wise old woman who raised Deirdre, a figure in Irish folklore who was prophesied to be the most beautiful woman in the world. The prophecy, made by druids at the time of her birth, also indicated that "she would mean the death of many of our men" {see Irish Myths & Legends} Rather than have her killed, the king sent her to be raised in seclusion until she was old enough to marry him.
