When Patrick was in sickness, he desired to go to Armagh :
an angel went to meet him on the way at midday.
He (the angel) led him south to Victor ; he (Victor) it was that had
arranged (?) it: lo
the brake wherein he (Victor) was flamed : out of the tire he
addressed him".
He said : ' Primacy to Armagh ; to Christ render thanks :
50 unto heaven soon wilt thou go : thy prayers have been granted thee^.
