stance, at folios 121, 131, and 183. The volume appears to have 

 been written in the years 1628 and 1629; it contains 270 folios. 

 Vol. XII. (4241). This is a thick quarto, composed of dif- 

 ferent sized paper, and contains about 270 leaves, with short 

 memoirs and notices of Irish saints in the Latin language ; 

 the arrangement is alphabetical, and the volume appears to 

 be a note-book of some hagiographer. I was unable to 

 discover a name or date in the book. At page 99 is a pedi- 

 gree of " SS. Furseus, Foilanus, et Ultanus," the sons of 

 Giltanus, " Rex Hibernise." 



Vol. XIII. (4531) is a second copy, and I believe the oldest 

 in the library, of the Visio, &c. ; see Vol. II. (1 162), and Vol. 

 XXIV. (7960), in this catalogue. The MS. is written upon 

 vellum, and beautifully executed ; the sheet is small octavo, 

 and there are eighteen of them occupied with the piece. It 

 has no illumination, nor any trace of the Irish character, or 

 the name of the scribe. It is attributed to the close of the 

 thirteenth century. 



Vol. XIV. (4639). This is a small duodecimo volume 

 bound in calf; upon the fly-leaf is the following title : 

 " Martyrologium 

 Sanctorum Hibernise coUegit et digessit 

 Michael O'Clerij 

 ord. S. Francisci 

 Duaii in Flandria Gallica 1629." 

 After this follow four pages in Irish, in the hand-writ- 

 ing of Michael O'Clery, and dated from Donegal, 1628. 

 After this a short paragraph or testimonial in Irish, dated 

 Nov. 1, 1636, and signed

This paragaph appears upon the next page also, and is 

 signed " Connep Plac 6paD2," bearing date Nov. 11, 1636.
