fury after the death of the patron saint
or ireland, at which time a school Of
scrlbes hourished under his immediate
successor, st. Columb, the princely mis-
slonary who made the beautiful copy
OF the gospel knows as the Book OF
hells. However that may be, the man
uscriDt is now preserved in the cele-
brated Book of Hymns Q.iber Hymnor-
um) In the library OF Trinity college,
Dublin. Bishop USHER expressed 1t as
MS opinion that the Book of Hymns was
at least 1000 years old in his time The
hymn of st. Patrick is composed in the
Bearla Feline. very ancient and aris-
tocratic dialect of the Gaelic. that in
which the Brehon laws and the very
Oldest tracts are written. The orthog-
raphy and many of the words of this
dialect became obsolete very early in
to be used, so that the date of the hymn
becomes fixed within a certain century
the sixth. Moreover, it is distinctly
alluded to in Tirechan's annotations
on the saints life written in the sew
enth century. In this he stated that
the Irish hymn ought TO be sung for
ever.
But perhaps the strongest proofs Of
It's antiquity are to be found in the COM
position itself" says the learned DR..
Petrie. "A Christian living after the
establishment of Christianity would
hardly invoke the Deity to protect him
from the spells of women, smiths and
Druids; and the placing of the natural
powers of the Creator between himself
and all evil powers has no parallel in
any later Christian composition. II
may be doubted if the production would
be regarded as orthodox in times sub
sequent TO the actual time of its pro-
duction. Hence IT is never mentioned
in later lives of the saint. Colgan
simply includes a hymn in his list of
the saints works. But Notwithstanding
the silence of the writer's, ii is remark
able that the Lureach Phadruig is still
remembered in many parts Of Ireland
by the peasantry, and a portion of IL
is repeated to this day, usually at bed
time, with the same confidence in its
protecting powers as, according to st.
Evin. was placed in it previously to his
time"
