10. Crimthann son of Endae offers Grian Fothart from Gabur Liphi
as far as Suide Laigen". Isserninus kneels to Patrick for his monastery*^ (?)
and his parent church, and Patrick gives (them) to bishop Fith, and he
gives it to Cathbad's sons and sets up with them* (at) Ath Fithot'. ^
11. Patrick went from Tara into the province of Leinster, and he 25 and Dubthach great-grandson of Lugar met at Domnach Mar Criathar^ in Hui Cinnselich". Patrick besought Dubthach for the material of a bishop, from his disciples of Leinster, to wit, a man free, of good kiu, without defect, without blemish, whose wealth would not be overlittle nor over- great : ' I desire a man of one wife, unto whom hath been borne only one 30 child.' Dubthach answered : ' I know not of my household (such a man) save Fiacc the Fair of Leinster who has gone from me into the lands of Connaught (with bardism for the kings'). As they were thinking of him they saw Fiacc the Fair (coming) towards them. Said Dubthach to Patrick : " come to tonsure me, for the man will succour me to my con- 35 solation by his being tonsured in my stead, for great is his dutifulness." Thereafter, then, Fiacc the Fair succoured Dubthach, and Patrick ton- sured him and baptized him. He conferred a bishop's grade upon him, so that he is the bishop who has been first consecrated in Leinster. And Patrick gave to Fiacc a case (containing), to wit, a bell and a reliquary, 40 and a crozier and tablets ; and he left with him seven of his community, to wit. My Catocc of Inis Fail", Augustin of Inis Becc^, Tecan, Diarmait, Naindid, Pol, Fedelmid. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]
