13. Vita S. Cronani, episcopi et confessoris, fols. 88 bb to 90 ba. 



" Gloriosus abbas Cronanus de provinchia mumenensium oriundus fuit cuius 

 pater Odhranus vocabatur qui erat de gente ele genitus Et ipse haut procul ab 

 aeervo an maigbe in ilia regione habitavit : qui habuit uxoreni de gente eorcobaskyn 

 et ilia vocabatur coemri." 



His pedigree is at the foot of the page. This is St. Cronan of 

 Roscrea, whose day is the 28th of April. 



14. Yita S. Comgalli, abbatis et confessoris, fols. 90 b a to 94 ab. 



" De aquilonali bibernie regione nomine dail naraidbe .... 

 sanctus abbas Comgallus ortus fuit : Cujus pater sethna vocabatur 

 et uxor eius nomine brig." 



His pedigree is given at the foot. It is in this life, at fol. 91 ba, 

 that there occurs the passage, which is so curiously rendered in 

 Fleming's Collectanea* as to fix the identity of this manuscript 

 with his Codex Ardmachanus.] His pedigree is given in full at the 

 foot of the page. This is St. Comgall of Bangor, whose day is the 

 10th of May. 



15. Yita S. Carthagi, episcopi et confessoris, fols. 94 ab to 99 bb, 

 where it is abruptly terminated by the absence of folio 100. 



" Gloriosus cbristi cartbagus qui vulgo vocatur mochuda de gente Kiarraidbi 

 luacra de nepotibus specialiter fergussii .... Pater iam carthagi 

 fyngain filius gnoe mater eius uia vocabatur." 



It is observed at fol. 94 b a that there was another Carthagus, his 

 senior and preceptor; also, at fol. 95 bb, that 867 monks were under 

 Mochuda. His pedigree is at the foot. This is St. Carthach or 

 Mochuda, of Eahen and Lismoie, whose day is the 14th of May. 



16. Yita S. Declani, episcopi et confessoris, fols. 101 a a to 106 ba. 

 A portion at the commencement of the life is wanting through the 

 loss of fol. 100, therefore the opening sentence on fol. 101 a a begins 

 abruptly — " filium eius ut ilium sine mora occideret." On fol. 104, 

 opposite some Irish words in the text, beginning p&uh. &c, is written 

 in the margin p^nn Ann ro, ' this is a verse.' St. Declan, of Ard- 

 more, is commemorated on the 24th of July. 



17. Yita S. Kyarani, episcopi et confessoris, fols. 10Q> b a to \0§ b a . 



" Beatissimus episcopus Kyaranus bybernie sanctorum primogenitus 

 Pater eius vocabatur Lugneus mater vero Liadain dicebatur." 



His pedigree is at the foot. At fol. 107 ab, oppo ite Liadain, is 

 written in the margin " Ceall LiadhainJ in Fear ceall O Molmoy patria, 



* See the observations at p. 341 supra.

 scripta," Collectanea, pp. 303-313. 



X Now Killyon, in the parish of Drumcullen, barony of Eglish or Fircall, in 

 King's County. There is also a parish of the same name in Upper Moyfenrath, 

 County of Meath. St. Liadhain's day is the 11th of August, not the 14th, as erro- 

 neously printed by Colgan. (Actt. SS. p. 464 a.) See Transactt. Kilken. Artl.a ol 

 Soc, vol. i., p. 215.
