=Ullin’s Daughter= (_Lord_), a young lady who eloped with the chief of Ulva’s Isle, and induced a boatman to row them over Lochgyle during a storm. The boat was capsized just as Lord Ullin and his retinue reached the shore. He saw the peril, he cried in agony, “Come back, come back! and I’ll forgive your Highland chief;” but it was too late, the “waters wild rolled o’er his child, and he was left lamenting.”--Campbell, _Lord Ullin’s Daughter_ (a ballad). =Ulric=, son of Werner (_i.e._, count of Siegendorf). With the help of Gabor, he saved the count of Stral´enheim from the Oder; but murdered him afterwards for the wrongs he had done his father and himself, especially in seeking to oust them from the princely inheritance of Siegendorf.--Byron, _Werner_ (1822). =Ulri´ca=, in _Charles XII._, by J. R. Planché (1826). _Ulrica_, a girl of great beauty and noble determination of character, natural daughter of Ernest de Fridberg. Dressed in the clothes of Herman (the deaf and dumb jailer-lad), she gets access to the dungeon where her father is confined as a “prisoner of State,” and contrives his escape, but he is recaptured. Whereupon Christine (a young woman in the service of the Countess Marie) goes direct to Frederick II., and obtains his pardon.--E. Stirling, _The Prisoner of State_ (1847). _Ulrica_, _alias_ MARTHA, mother of Bertha, the betrothed of Hereward (3 _syl._).--Sir W. Scott, _Count Robert of Paris_ (time, Rufus). _Ulrica_, daughter of the late thane of Torquilstone; _alias_ Dame Urfried, an old sibyl at Torquilstone Castle.--Sir W. Scott, _Ivanhoe_ (time Richard I.). =Ulster= (_The kings of_). The kings of _Ulster_ were called O’Neil; those of _Munster_, O’Brien; of _Connaught_, O’Connor; of _Leinster_, MacMorrough; and of _Meath_, O’Melaghlin. =Ultimus Romano´rum=, Horace Walpole (1717-1797). =Ulvfagre=, the fierce Dane, who massacred the Culdees of Io´na, and having bound Aodh in iron, carried him to the church, demanding of him where he had concealed the church treasures. At that moment a mysterious gigantic figure in white appeared, and, taking Ulvfagre by the arm, led him to the statue of St. Columb, which instantly fell on him and killed him. The tottering image was dashed Down from its lofty pedestal; On Ulvfagre’s helm it crashed. Helmet, and skull, and flesh, and brain, It crushed as millstones crush the grain. Campbell, _Reullura_. =Ulysses=, a corrupt form of Odusseus [_O. dus´.suce_], the king of Ithăca. He is one of the chief heroes in Homer’s _Iliad_, and the chief hero of the _Odyssey_. Homer represents him as being craftily wise and full of devices. Virgil ascribes to him the invention of the Wooden Horse.
