Second of 2 volumes, see [13]. This volume contains a translation
and very full notes. The first edition is based on two
eleventh-century manuscripts: Dublin, Trinity College, MS 1441
[formerly E.4.2]; and one then in Dublin, Franciscan Friary,
Merchant's Quay. This latter MS[Dillon A2] is now in the Franciscan
Library, Killiney, County Dublin, whither it was transferred in
1946. The collections to which the MSS bear witness are antiquarian
rather than liturgical compilations and probably owe their
existence to the drive to safeguard cultural monuments in the
aftermath of the Norse invasions. Trinity College 1441 is datable
to the 11th Century, but the texts, in Irish and Latin, appear to
date from the 5th to the 8th centuries. The edition is presented
with extensive notes and a glossary. See Kenney n. 574; CLLA 177;
BCLL, nn. 542-564, 578-591.
